Bless us dear Lord, departing hence

Representative Text

1 Bless us dear Lord, departing hence
Bless us when we attend again.
Support our lives be our defence--
Thy blessing and thy grace remain.

2 Bless us with wisdom, health & peace,
O may thy grace to us be giv'n!
When this, our present life shall cease,
Then let us be the heirs of heav'n.
