1. Dear Saviour, now as we must part,
May thy rich love dwell in each heart;
Be with us till again we meet
To worship at thy precious feet.

Chorus:
Be with us, Saviour, till we meet
To worship at thy precious feet;
Oh, lead us gently all the way
Unto the realms of endless day.

2. What here we've learn'd from thy sweet word
Whatever good we may have heard,
Help us to heed it every day
That from thy side we may not stray. [Chorus]

3. If ne'er again we here shall meet
To honor thee by service sweet;
Oh may we meet around thy throne
When thou shalt come to claim thine own. [Chorus]
