God bless and keep thee through all thy days,

by Henry de Fluiter (1872–1970)

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 38 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

God bless and keep thee through all thy days, God bless and keep thee in all thy ways; “Mizpah” our parting sweet, “Mizpah” our hearts repeat, Till we again shall meet with songs of praise.

Verse 2

How good to be where God’s children meet, How good to worship at Jesus’ feet; There love and peace abide, There sweetest rest beside, There every care we hide in joy complete.

Verse 3

Here in His word sweet manna is found, Here living waters for all abound; Jesus our need supplies, And who on Him relies He ever satisfies; His praise resound.
