The Mass is ended, all go in peace.\nWe must diminish, and Christ increase.\nWe take him with us where’er we go\nThat through our actions his life may show.\n2. We witnessed his love to ev’ryone\nBy our communion with Christ the Son.\nWe take the Mass to where men may be,\nSo Christ may shine forth for all to see.\n3. Thanks to the Father, who shows the way,\nHis life is with us throughout each day.\nLet all our living and loving be\nTo praise and honour the Trinity.\n4. The Mass is ended, all go in peace.\nWe must diminish and Christ increase.\nWe take him with us where e’er we go\nThat through our actions his life may show.
