‘ . Victory Hymn _ (Finlnndid, N0. 73, Jean Sibelius) For victory, we thank Thee, O our God, For strength and courage and determined will To fight for freedom, justice. brotherhood, To draw the sword against a demon foe That "knows no law save that of brutal might, That shows no pity, has no sense of right.

How great the cost in cruel pain and grief,

In bitter tears and agony of soul;

What precious hopes are blasted, treasures spent,

What noble acts performed, what glorious deeds. What horrors dread endured by heroes slain. That peace, sweet peace may live on earth again!

In penitence for sin we, contrite, bow,

For national sins we pny lo be forgiven,

Cast out our pride, our selfishness and greed,-

O Father, hearQThy children's anguished cryl

Soon may we bid the guns to cease, dear Lord,

I Soon put in silver sheath the bloody sword.

Guide Thou on land, on sea, and in the air Our brave, who fight midst screaming shot and shell; Guide us at home, who humbly seek Thy face; Divinely comfort all who mourn the dead- Those gallant souls who lie ‘neath foreign sod; Thy mercy on Thy suffering people, God!
