1. Brethren, I bid you all farewell, And from my very heart, Affectionately I do tell That you and I must part. 2. And if I see you not again, I trust that I can say, My labor shall not be in vain, That I have spent this day. 3. I trust I can to record call All you that hear me now; I have declared God's counsel all, As he did me endow. 4. I now depart, I leave you here, I leave you with the Lord; And may we all henceforth appear, And be of one accord. 5. And if we part to meet no more, While we on earth remain, O may we meet on Canaan's shore, And never part again. 6. There we shall join to sing God's praise, And al his wonders tell, And triumph in His holy ways; So, brethren, fare you well.
