Jeremiah E. Rankin (b. Thornton, NH, 1828; d. Cleveland, OH, 1904) says of his hymn text,

Information technology was written equally a Christian adept-bye; it was called forth by no person or occasion, but was deliberately equanimous as a Christian hymn on the basis of the etymology of "good-bye," which means "God be with you." The first stanza was sent to 2 unlike composers, one of musical note, the other [William Grand. Tomer] wholly unknown and non thoroughly educated in music. I selected the limerick of the latter, and with some slight changes it was published.

The showtime stanza was published in 1880 with the tune GOD Exist WITH YOU by William G. Tomer in Gospel Bells; the 1883 edition of that hymnal included eight stanzas. A popular hymn, "God Be with You" gained currency through the evangelistic crusades of Dwight 50. Moody and Ira D. Sankey (PHH 73). Mod hymnals commonly print only four stanzas.

The text is essentially a parting blessing, a prayer that God volition guide you (st. i), feed you (st. 2), and protect you in life and in death (st. 3-iv). Each stanza is framed past the phrase "God be with you till nosotros meet again."

A graduate of Middlebury Higher, Vermont, and of Andover Theological Seminary, Newton Center, Massachusetts, Rankin served Congregational churches in New York, Vermont, Massachusetts, Washington, D.C., and New Jersey (1855-1889). In 1889 he became president of Howard University, Washington, D.C., a school famous for its many prominent African American graduates. Rankin issued three volumes of poesy and hymn texts (of which "God Be with Yous" is his most well-known), collaborated in the compilation of hymnals such as The Gospel Temperance Hymnal (1878) and Gospel Bells (1880), and published German-English Lyrics, Sacred and Secular (1897).

Liturgical Use:
Though traditionally used when ministers, missionaries, or others take their go out from a congregation, this hymn is generally useful as a dismissal hymn, as a prayer for blessing, and every bit a sung benediction.
