English text
- 1.
- Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing;
- Fill our hearts with love and peace;
- Let us each Thy love possessing,
- Triumph in redeeming grace.
- O refresh us, O refresh us,
- Traveling 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.
- Ever faithful, ever faithful,
- To the truth may we be found.
- 3.
- So that when Thy love shall call us,
- Savior, from the world away,
- Let no fear of death appall us,
- Glad Thy summons to obey.
- May we ever, may we ever,
- Reign with Thee in endless day.
Lyrics: John Fawcett, in A Supplement to the Shawbury Hymn Book Shrewsbury, England: 1773; (Stanzas 1-2); Godfrey Thring (Stanza 3).
