270. Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing

1 Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing,
Fill out hearts with joy and peace;
Let us each Thy love possessing,
Triumph in redeeming grace:
O, refresh us,
Traveling through this wilderness.

2 Thanks we give, and adoration,
For Thy Gospel's joyful sound:
May the fruits of Thy salvation
In our hearts and lives abound:
May Thy presence
With us evermore be found.

3 Then, whene'er the signal's given
Us from earth to call away,
Borne, on angel's wings to heaven--
Glad the summons to obey--
May we ever
Reign with Christ in endless day.
