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

It was written as a Christian adept-cheerio; it was called forth by no person or occasion, but was deliberately equanimous every bit a Christian hymn on the ground of the etymology of "skilful-bye," which means "God exist with you." The get-go stanza was sent to two dissimilar composers, i of musical note, the other [William G. Tomer] wholly unknown and not thoroughly educated in music. I selected the composition of the latter, and with some slight changes it was published.

The showtime stanza was published in 1880 with the tune GOD Exist WITH Y'all by William Thou. Tomer in Gospel Bells; the 1883 edition of that hymnal included 8 stanzas. A popular hymn, "God Be with Y'all" gained currency through the evangelistic crusades of Dwight Fifty. Moody and Ira D. Sankey (PHH 73). Modern hymnals commonly impress just four stanzas.

The text is substantially a parting blessing, a prayer that God will guide you lot (st. one), feed you (st. two), and protect you in life and in death (st. iii-4). Each stanza is framed by the phrase "God be with y'all till we run into again."

A graduate of Middlebury College, Vermont, and of Andover Theological Seminary, Newton Middle, 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 schoolhouse famous for its many prominent African American graduates. Rankin issued three volumes of poetry and hymn texts (of which "God Be with You" 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 language-English Lyrics, Sacred and Secular (1897).

Liturgical Employ:
Though traditionally used when ministers, missionaries, or others take their leave from a congregation, this hymn is by and large useful as a dismissal hymn, as a prayer for blessing, and as a sung benediction.
