LORD, dismiss us with Thy blessing
    Fill our hearts with joy and peace;
Let us each, Thy love possessing,
    Triumph in redeeming grace:
        O, refresh us,
    Travelling through this wilderness.
 
2  Thanks we give and adoration,
    For Thy Gospel’s joyful sound;
May the fruits of Thy salvation
    In our hearts and lives abound:
        May Thy presence
    With us evermore be found.
 
3  So, whene’er the signal’s given
    Us from earth to call away,
Borne on angels’ wings to Heaven,
    Glad the summons to obey,
        May we ever
    Reign with Christ in endless day.
 
John Fawcett, 1739-1817
