CCCLXXXIX. At Dismission

1 Lord dismiss us with thy blessing,
Fill our hearts with joy and peace;
Let us each thy love possessing,
Triumph in redeeming grace:
O refresh us!
Travelling 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 So, whene'er the signal's given,
Us from earth to call away;
Borne on Angel's wings to heaven,
Glad to leave our cumbrous clay,
May we ready,
Rise and reign in endless day!
