VII. “Part in peace! Is day before us?” | | By Sarah Flower Adams (1805–1848) |
| | | PART in peace! Is day before us? | |
| Praise His name for life and light; | |
| Are the shadows lengthening o’er us? | |
| Bless His care who guards the night. | |
| |
| Part in peace! With deep thanksgiving, | 5 |
| Rendering, as we homeward tread, | |
| Gracious service to the living, | |
| Tranquil memory to the dead. | |
| |
| Part in peace! Such are the praises | |
| God our Maker loveth best; | 10 |
| Such the worship that upraises | |
| Human hearts to heavenly rest. | | | | |
