Gracious God, ere we part

1

Gracious God, ere we partGive us thy Spirit,And as children of thineMay we inheritThat land of light and joyWhere sin can ne'er annoy,And peace without alloyReigneth forever.

2

There shall saints ever dwell,Free from all sorrow,In that home of delight,On that blest morrow.Lord fill us with thy grace,And give us each a place,Where we may see thy face,Glorified ever.
