24. Send the Blessing

1 Holy Father, send Thy blessing
On Thy children gathered here;
Let them all, Thy love confessing,
Be to Thee forever dear.

Refrain:
Send the blessing, send the blessing
On Thy children gathered here;
Send the blessing, send the blessing,
Grant us all Thy love and cheer.

2 Blessed Saviour, who in meekness
Didst vouchsafe a child to be,
Guide their steps and help their weakness,
Bless, and make them like to Thee. [Refrain]

3 Spread Thy wings of mercy o’er them,
Grant Thy Spirit from above;
Be their shield, and go before them,
Give them peace and joy and love. [Refrain]
