1.
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.
Refrain:
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
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 provide you;
God be with you till we meet again.

With the oil of joy anoint you;
Sacred ministries appoint you;

When life’s perils thick confound you;
Put His arms unfailing round you;

Of His promises remind you;
For life’s upper garner bind you;

Sicknesses and sorrows taking,
Never leaving or forsaking;

Keep love’s banner floating o’er you,
Strike death’s threatening 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.
Refrain.
