Weir's original lyrics from 1908, consisting of three verses, did not contain the word sons, instead using the somewhat archaic "thou dost in us command", and it contained no religious reference.[1][10][19] Weir decided to change his lyrics to "in all thy sons command" in 1914,[20] and in 1926 added a fourth verse of a religious nature.[21]
It was archaic 100 years ago, so what the heck let's put it in now.
