     13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words. 14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? 15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. 16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar’s. 17 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.(KJV)

1. Swell the anthem, raise the song; 
Praises to our God belong. 
Saints and angels join to sing 
Praises to the heav’nly King. 
Blessings from His lib’ral hand 
Flow around this happy land. 
Kept by Him, no foes annoy; 
Peace and freedom we enjoy. 

2. Here, beneath a peaceful sway, 
May we cheerfully obey, 
Never feel oppression’s rod, 
Ever own and worship God. 
Hark, the voice of nature sings 
Praises to the King of kings. 
Let us join the choral song 
And the grateful notes prolong. Amen.
