1. Sent forth by God's blessing, Our true faith confessing, The people of God from His dwelling take leave. The supper is ended. Oh, now be extended The fruits of this service in all who believe. The seed of His teaching, Receptive souls reaching, Shall blossom in action for God and for all. His grace did invite us, His love shall unite us To work for God's kingdom and answer His call. 2. With praise and thanks giving To God ever living, The task of our everyday life we will face. Our faith ever sharing, In love ever caring, Embracing His children of each tribe and race. With Your feast feed us, With Your light now lead us; Unite us as one in this life that we share. Then may all the living With praise and thanksgiving. Give honor to Christ His name that we bear.
