And now the parting time has come

Published in 1 hymnal


Representative Text

1 And now the parting time has come;
We sing good-night e’re we go home:
We trust the heavenly Father’s care
May keep us safe from every snare.

Refrain:
Goodnight, Good-night;
Oh, be our future ever bright!
May peace and joy our way attend,
And God preserve us to the end;
And when we bid the earth good-night,
May we awake in glory bright!

2 Oh, may the lessons of this hour
Be treasured by the Spirit’s power;
Lord, by them may we all be taught,
And nearer to the Saviour brought. [Refrain]

3 And when on earth our race is run,
The battle fought, the vict’ry won,
May we, in heaven, dwell near the throne,
Where good-night songs no more are known! [Refrain]
