[Merciful God, who hast all men created]
Merciful God, who hast all men created,By whom no creature of thy hand is hated,
To whom the sinner's fate no joy can give,—
Thou wouldst that he should turn to Thee and live:
Have pity upon those who live in vain,—
Pagan, apostate, heretic, profane.
Scatter their ignorance; their pride subdue;
Convince the infidel, convert the Jew;
Teach those to pray who once thy grace could mock;
And so bring home these wanderers to thy flock,
That they may be with thine elect enrolled,
Under one Shepherd, Christ the Lord, one fold;
Who, with the Father and the Spirit one,
Reigns evermore. So let thy will be done.
