Ere from our gathering we’re dismissed, dear Lord

Ere from our gathering we’re dismissed

dear Lord

We sing again to thank Thee from our heart

For Thy dear presence and refreshing grace

Which Thou so richly didst to us impart.

Though now the meeting’s over

in Thy grace

Thy presence never will from us depart;

But as the Spirit Thy sustaining strength

Thou wouldst in love unceasingly impart.

Lord

may Thy presence go with us

we pray

To bear with us the burden on our heart

That every moment we Thyself enjoy

Till in the coming meeting we take part.
