17. Dismiss Us with Thy Blessing, Lord

1 Dismiss us with Thy blessing Lord;
Help us to feed upon Thy word;
All that has been amiss, forgive,
And let Thy truth within us live.

2 Tho’ we are guilty, Thou art good;
Wash all our works in Jesus’s blood;
Give every burdened soul release,
And bid us all depart in peace.

3 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
