AT A FAREWELL, by JEREMIAH EAMES RANKIN Poet's Biography First Line: God be with you till we meet again Last Line: God be with you till we meet again. | |||
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. God be with you till we meet again, 'Neath His wings protecting hide you; Daily manna still divide you; God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, With the oil of joy anoint you; Sacred ministries appoint you; God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, When life's perils thick confound you, Put His arms unfailing round you; God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, Of His promises remind you; For life's upper garner bind you; God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, Sicknesses and sorrows taking, Never leaving nor forsaking; God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, Keep love's banner floating o'er you; Smite death's threat'ning 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. CHORUS: Till we meet at Jesus' feet, God be with you till we meet again. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FAIREST OF FREEDOM'S DAUGHTERS by JEREMIAH EAMES RANKIN BALLAD by CHARLES STUART CALVERLEY HUMAN LIFE: ON THE DENIAL OF IMMORTALITY by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE IPHIGENEIA AND AGAMEMNON, FR.
