Till We Meet Round the Throne

Representative Text

1 God be with us as we part,
Keep us still his own;
May he watch ‘twixt you and me,
Till we shall meet round the throne.

Refrain:
Till we shall meet,
Meet round the Saviour’s throne;
O may he watch ‘twixt you and me,
Till we shall meet round the throne.

2 Wheresoe’er our paths may lead,
‘Neath dull skies or bright,
May the Lord be at our side,
Filling our hearts with his light. [Refrain]

3 When the tempter’s fiery darts
At our souls are cast,
May the Lord be near to shield,
Till ev’ry danger is past. [Refrain]

4 Should we never meet again,
‘Neath earth’s changing sky,
May the Saviour keep our hearts,
Till we shall meet by and by. [Refrain]
