LyicsA PARTING hymn we sing
Around Thy table, Lord;
Again our grateful tribute bring,
Our solemn vows record.
Here have we seen Thy face,
And felt Thy presence here;
So may the savor of Thy grace
In word and life appear.
The purchase of Thy blood--
By sin no longer led--
The path our dear Redeemer trod
May we, rejoicing, tread.
In self-forgetting love
Be Christian union shown,
Until we join the Church above,
And know as we are known.
