332. In God's name let us on our way!

1 In God's name let us on our way!
The Father's help and grace we pray;
His love shall guard us round about
From foes within and harms without.

2 And Christ, be Thou our Friend and Guide,
Through all our wanderings at our side,
Help us all evil to withstand
That wars against Thy least command.

3 The Holy Spirit, day by day,
With needful gifts attend our way,
With hope and strength when dark our road,
And bring us home again in God!
