258. Ere to the world again we go

1 Ere to the world again we go,
To meet its cares and idle show,
Thy grace, once more, O God, we crave,
From folly and from sin to save.

2 May the great truths we here have heard,
The lessons of thy holy word,
Dwell in our inmost bosoms deep,
And all our souls from error keep.

3 O may the influences of this day
Long as our memory with us stay,
And as an angel guardian prove,
To guide us to our home above!
