Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #588 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The Lord be with us as each day
His blessings we receive;
His gift of peace on all we pray,
Before His courts we leave.
2 The Lord be with us as we walk
Along our homeward road;
In silent thought or friendly talk
Our hearts be near to God.
3 The Lord be with us till the night
Enfold our day of rest;
Be He of every heart the Light,
Of every home the Guest.
4 The Lord be with us thro' the hours
Of slumber calm and deep,
Protect our homes, renew our powers,
And guard His people's sleep.
AMEN. Topics: Closing and Vesper Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: BELMONT
