God Help Kentucky!
God Help Kentucky!
Lord from thy heavenly throne
Thy holy will be done;
Teach us true liberty,
Make us from tyrants free;
Let our homes happy be,
The wiles of Lincoln’s men,
Do thou with might restrain,
Help thou when power doth press,
Aid thou in our distress;
Thou whose dread name we bless,
Give us staunch honesty,
Let our pride manly be;
Help us to hold the right,
Give us both truth and might—
Lord of all life and light.
Give us the power to stand,
Firm for our native land;
Drive with thy Almighty power
The invaders from our door,
Let them be seen more,
