Parting with Friends

Appears in 15 hymnals First Line: Now Lord, tho' we must part awhile Lyrics: 1 Now Lord, tho' we must part awhile, Upon the Heav'nly Road; Yet let thy Face upon us smile, And keep us near our God. 2 And if on Earth again we meet, Lord let us meet with thee; And let thy gracious Presence Sweet From Bondage set us free. 3 This only this we humbly crave, While Earth is our Abode; That we with Christ and Saints my have, Communion on the Road. 4 For since our Fellowship below, Affords such Joy and Love; We long its full Extent to know, When we shall meet above. 5 Let this, O Lord excite us on, To keep the narrow Way, Till we shall meet around thy Throne, With all the Heirs of Day. 6 Come Holy Ghost, our Souls inspire! Maintain this Flame of Love, Till we shall join that glorious Choir, Of Worshippers above. Topics: Brotherly Love
