Dismission. Heb. 13. 20, 21; Ps. 89. 15-17
1
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!
 
Travelling 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 be found;
 
May thy presence
 
With us evermore abound.
3
So, whene’er the signal’s given,
 
Us from earth to call away,
 
Borne on angels’ wings to heaven,
 
Glad to leave our cumbrous clay,
 
May we ready,
 
Rise and reign in endless day.
