Representative Text

1 The Lord love thee
And keep thee
Upon the land and sea;
And cause His face
In ev’ry place
To shine divine on thee.

2 The Lord bless thee
And rest thee,
Where’er thy journeys be;
And never cease
To give His peace
By day and night to thee.

3 The Lord guide thee
And bring thee
To where the home-shores be;
And ev’ry hour
In joyous pow’r
His blessings lay on thee.
