All join the heavenly, white-robed Of love without surcease,

2 Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way;

With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day;
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,

That in this house have called upon Thy name.
3 Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night,

Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.
4 Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.

J. Ellerton, 1866
