God of Justice (Christich, Serbian version)

God of Justice; Thou who saved us when in deepest bondage cast, Hear Thy Serbian children's voices, Be our help as in the past.

With Thy mighty hand sustain us, Still our rugged pathway trace; God, our hope; protect and cherish Serbian lands and Serbian race!

Bind in closest links our kindred Teach the love that will not fail, May the loathed fiend of discord Never in our ranks prevail.

Let the golden fruits of union Our young tree of freedom grace; God, our Master! guide and prosper Serbian lands and Serbian race!

Lord! Avert from us Thy vengeance, Thunder of Thy dreaded ire; Bless each Serbian town and hamlet, Mountain, meadow, heart and spire.

When our host goes forth to battle Death or victory to embrace- God of armies! be our leader Strengthen then the Serbian race!

On our sepulchre of ages Breaks the resurrection morn, From the slough of direst slavery Serbia anew is born.

Protect the serbian fatherland, the fruit of five centuries of battle, God save, God protect, so prays to you, the Serbian people!
