God be with you till we meet again
God be with you till we meet again;
by his counsels guide, uphold you,
with his sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
'neath his wings protecting hide you;
daily manna still provide you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
with the oil of joy anoint you;
sacred ministries appoint you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
when life's perils thick confound you;
put his arms unfailing round you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
of his promises remind you;
for life's upper garner bind you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
sicknesses and sorrows taking,
never leaving or forsaking;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
keep love's banner floating o'er you,
smite death's threatening wave before you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
ended when for you earth's story,
Israel's chariot sweep to glory;
God be with you till we meet again.
