Lyrics 1 Lord, be with and watch between us, Guard the door of ev’ry heart; Make Thy face to shine upon us, And to each Thy grace impart. Refrain: Grant us peace, that, like a river Onward flows, and flows forever; Till in heav’n we all shall gather, Never more to part again. 2 Lord, be with and watch between us, Wheresoever we may be; In our absence from each other, May we still abide in Thee. [Refrain] 3 Lord, be with and watch between us, Keep our hearts from ev’ry sin; Still protect, defend, preserve us, Going out and coming in. [Refrain] 4 Lord, be with and watch between us, Lift our souls and light our way; To a life without a shadow, In a land of perfect day. [Refrain]
