Praise to Christ.
Worship, honor, glory, blessing,
Be to him who reigns above!
Young and old thy Name confessing,
Saviour! let us share thy love!
2 As the saints in heaven adore thee,
We would bow before thy throne;
As thine angels bow before thee,
So on earth thy will be done!
754 8s, 7s & 4s.
Dismission.
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!
Traveling through this wilderness.
2 Thanks we give and adoration
For the 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 angel’s wings to heaven
Glad the summons to obey,
May we ready,
Rise and reign in endless day.
755 8s, 7s & 4s.
Keep us, Lord.
Keep us, Lord, oh, keep us ever!
Vain our hope, if left by thee;
We are thine; oh, leave us never,
Till thy glorious face we see!
Then to praise thee
Through a bright eternity.
2 Precious is thy word of promise,
Precious to thy people here;
Never take thy presence from us,
Jesus, Saviour, still be near;
Living, dying,
May thy name our spirits cheer.
756 8s, 7s & 4s.
God of our salvation, hear us.
God of our salvation, hear us;
Bless, O bless us, ere we go;
When we join the world, be near us,
Lest we cold and careless grow;
Saviour, keep us—
Keep us safe from every foe.
2 As our steps are drawing nearer
To the place we call our home,
May our view of heaven grow clearer,
Hope more bright of joys to come;
And when dying,
May thy presence cheer the gloom.
757 7s & 6s.
Praise for salvation.
To thee be praise for ever,
Thou glorious King of kings!
Thy wondrous love and favor
Each ransomed spirit sings.
2 We’ll celebrate thy glory,
With all thy saints above,
And shout the joyful story
Of thy redeeming love.
758 H. M.
To God, and the word of his grace.
Acts 20:32.
To thee our wants are known,
From thee are all our powers;
Accept what is thine own,
And pardon what is ours:
Our praises, Lord, and prayers, receive,
And to thy words a blessing give.
