<p>Savior, again to Thy dear Name we raise<br>
With one accord our parting hymn of praise;<br>
We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease;<br>
Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace.</p>
<p>Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way;<br>
With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day.<br>
Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,<br>
That in this house have called upon Thy Name.</p>
<p>Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night;<br>
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;<br>
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,<br>
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.</p>
<p>Grant us Thy peace&#8212;the peace Thou didst bestow<br>
On Thine Apostles in Thine hour of woe;<br>
The peace Thou broughtest, when at eventide<br>
They saw Thy pierc&egrave;d hands, Thy wounded side.</p>
<p>Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life;<br>
Peace to Thy church from error and from strife;<br>
Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love;<br>
Peace in each heart, Thy Spirit from above.</p>
<p>Thy peace in life, the balm of every pain;<br>
Thy peace in death, the hope to rise again;<br>
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,<br>
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.</p>

<div class="lyrics">
<p>Father, once more before we part, we raise<br>
With one accord our parting hymn of praise:<br>
Once more we bless Thee, ere our songs shall cease,<br>
Then, lowly kneeling, pray Thee for Thy peace.</p>
<p>Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night,<br>
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light.<br>
From harm and danger, fear and shame kept free,<br>
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.</p>
