Verse 1
Thy hand, O God, has guided 
Thy flock, from age to age; 
the wondrous tale is written, 
full clear, on every page; 
our fathers owned Thy goodness, 
and we their deeds record; 
and both of this bear witness; 
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.  
 
Verse 2
Thy heralds brought glad tidings 
to greatest as to least; 
they bade men rise, and hasten 
to share the great King's feast; 
and this was all their teaching, 
in every deed and word, 
to all alike proclaiming 
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.  
 
Verse 3
Through many a day of darkness, 
through many a scene of strife, 
the faithful few fought bravely, 
to guard the nation's life. 
Their gospel of redemption, 
sin pardoned, man restored, 
was all in this enfolded: 
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.  
 
Verse 4
Thy mercy will not fail us, 
nor leave thy work undone; 
with Thy right hand to help us, 
Thy victory shall be won; 
and then, by men and angels, 
Thy name shall be adored, 
and this shall be their anthem: 
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
