Sheet music
- 1Savior, again to Thy dear name we raise,With one accord, our parting hymn of praise;We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease,Then, lowly bowing, wait Thy word of peace.Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way;With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day;Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,That in this house have called upon Thy name.
- 2Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night,Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;From harm and danger keep Thy children free,For dark and light are both alike to Thee.Grant us Thy peace thu-out our earthly life,Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife;Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.Amen.
