LyicsLord, dismiss us with thy blessing,
Fill our hearts with joy and peace;
Let us each, thy love possessing,
Triumph in redeeming grace;
O refresh us!
Trav'ling through this wilderness.
Thanks we give and adoration
For the gospel's joyful sound;
May the fruits of thy salvation
In our hearts and lives abound;
May thy presence
With us evermore be found.
So, whene'er the signal's given
Us from earth to call away;
Borne on angel's wings to heav'n,
Glad the summons to obey,
May we ready,
Rise and reign in endless day.
