Pilgrims, with pleasure let us part,
Since we are of one mind and heart;
No length of days, no distant place,
Can ever break these bands of grace.
Parting with joy we’ll join and sing,
The wonders of our bleeding King;
Our distant bodies may remove,
But nothing can divide our love.
Now joined in love in Jesus’ name,
Let’s part and fly to spread his fame,
That other souls may leave their woe,
And join with us in glory too.
A few more rolling days and years,
Shall bring a period to our tears,
Soon shall we reach the blissful shore,
Where parting shall be known no more.
