Be with us all for evermore

From Oremus Hymnal

Jump to: navigation, search

Bewith us all for evermore,
far parted though on earth we be :
for oh! to yonder sunlit shore
we have no other guide but thee.

Be with us all, in strength and grace,
for daily need, for holy vow;
let suffering hearts thy dealings trace
touch tenderly the fevered brow.

Be with us all! we cannot know
what sudden storm the hours may bring;
in all temptation, joy, and woe,
to thee for aid still let us cling.

And where they cease to strive and sigh,
where time's uncertainties are o'er,
'mid strains of heaven and glories high.
be with us all for evermore.
