1.  O God of Seraph we beg Thee 

     Descend and be in our midst

     Send down Thy power of Victory 

     Unto us Thy children here

     Give us grace of salvation

     To protect us ere we go

     That we may be glad in Thee 

     We may conquer' enemies.

Chorus:  It's in vain ‐ (4 times)

2.  Angel of Victory be near us 

     Descend and be in our midst

     Rise up with your deadly weapons 

     To fight for this Holy Band

     Holy Spirit descend now

     For Thy Grace us to protect

     That we may rejoice in Grace

     And be glad in thy Victory.

Chorus:  It's in vain...

     Descend and be in our midst 

     Holy Michael is our Captain

     For that pow'r of victory now 

     Which descent upon Israel 

     And destroy all enemies.

Chorus:  It's in vain...

     Who the Egyptians destroyed 

     That sank them all in the Red sea

     Let the enemies bow down 

     Let them fall before thy Sun 

     That we may trample on them.
