174. Good Night

1 Now with happy hearts we leave you;
To our pleasant homes we go;
May the peace of God be with you
While you live on earth below;
May your lives with good be fruitful,
May your path be smooth and bright!
Wishing you God's richest blessing,
Now we bid you all Good night!

Refrain:
Good night, good night, good night,
now we bid you all good night!
Good night, good night, good night, good night!

2 We may never be together
As we now are gathered here;
God may summon soon some loved one
In his presence to appear.
When we come again to meet you,
Will your presence greet our isght?
Hoping God may safely keep you,
Here's to all a sweet Good night! [Chorus]
