AT A FAREWELL by JEREMIAH EAMES RANKIN

First Line: GOD BE WITH YOU TILL WE MEET AGAIN
Last Line: GOD BE WITH YOU TILL WE MEET AGAIN.

God be with you till we meet again,
By His counsels guide, uphold you;
With His sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
'Neath His wings protecting hide you;
Daily manna still divide you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
With the oil of joy anoint you;
Sacred ministries appoint you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
When life's perils thick confound you,
Put His arms unfailing round you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
Of His promises remind you;
For life's upper garner bind you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
Sicknesses and sorrows taking,
Never leaving nor forsaking;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again,
Keep love's banner floating o'er you;
Smite death's threat'ning wave before you;
God be with you till we meet again.

God be with you till we meet again.
Ended when for you earth's story,
Israel's chariot sweep to glory;
God be with you till we meet again.

CHORUS:

Till we meet at Jesus' feet,
God be with you till we meet again.
