1 Savior, again to your dear Name we raise
With one accord our parting hymn of praise;
Once more we bless you ere our worship cease,
Then, lowly bending, wait your word of peace.
2 Grant us your peace upon our homeward way;
With you began, with you shall end, the day:
Guard all the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon your name.
3 Grant us your peace, Lord, through the coming night;
for us transform its darkness into light.
Keep us from harm and danger till the dawn;
your evening presence promise to your own.
4 Grant us your peace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife;
Then, when your voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to your eternal peace.
