Lord, Dismiss Us in Thy Care

Lord, dismiss us in Thy care

1 Lord, dismiss us in Thy care,
Never leave us is our prayer,
As we go into the night,
Shield us with Thine arms of might.

2 Though we go our separate ways,
We're together in Thy praise,
Knit in love and faith unfeigned,
Keep us thus in Jesus' name.

3 When the tempter comes around,
Serving Thee may we be found,
Father, wilt Thou be nearby?
He won't harm if Thou art nigh.

4 Till we gather back again,
Father, keep us free from sin,
Pure and holy would we be,
As the one who set us free.
