Farewell

1BE perfect–holiness pursue;
In love be sure to dwell,
And God through Christ will comfort you,
So brethren all farewell.

2Be of one mind–give God your hearts;
And of his mercies tell,
Which he, through grace, to you imparts,
So brethren all farewell.

3Now live in peace and holy fear–
In love strive to excel;
For Christ our King will soon appear,
So brethren all farewell.

4The God of love and peace adore,
And on his mercy dwell;
We hope to meet on Canaan's shore,
So brethren all farewell.
