Father, once more
before we part, we raise
With one accord
our parting hymn of praise:
Once more we bless Thee,
ere our songs shall cease,
Then, lowly kneeling,
pray Thee for Thy peace.
Grant us Thy peace, Lord,
through the coming night,
Turn Thou for us
its darkness into light.
From harm and danger,
fear and shame kept free,
For dark and light
are both alike to Thee.

Savior, again to Thy dear Name we raise
