Chorus:

O Lord pour thy grace and thine endless benediction 
Upon thy final envoy and the map of verity; 
Our liege Mohamed and the crown of all creation
And join us with him in eternity.


Ye gates, unfold; strong walls, fall down;
    Bow minaret and dome!
The seer, who fled with life proscribed,
    Returns as conqueror home.

Ten thousand followers swell his train,
    All armed with sword and shield;
His foes have found their forces melt,
    And now must humbly yield.

No blood he sheds, no fine exacts,
    No prince to prison sends;
Forgives, forgets all injuries past,
    Treats enemies as friends.

Oh, hence may we a lesson learn
    Sweet tempers to display,
And ne'er resent the varied wrongs
    We suffer day by day.

Tho' others call our faith a sin,
    And motives bad impute;
May we no angry word reply,
    But rest in patience mute.

So shall they see that in our hearts
    Remembrance truly lives;
And honour with unfeigned respect
    The gentle grace it gives.
