Savior, again to thy dear Name we raise

With one accord our parting hymn of praise;

Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,

That in this house have called upon thy Name.

Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night;

Turn thou for us its darkness into light;

From harm and danger keep thy children free,

For dark and light are both alike to thee.

Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life;

Peace to thy Church from error and from strife;

Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love;

Peace in each heart, thy Spirit from above:

Thy peace in life, the balm of every pain;

Thy peace in death, the hope to rise again;

Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,

Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace.

Amen.
