Savior, again to thy dear Name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon thy Name. | Grant 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 throughout our earthly life; Peace to thy Church from error and from strife; Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love; Peace in each heart, thy Spirit from above: | Thy peace in life, the balm of every pain; Thy peace in death, the hope to rise again; Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace. | |
