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

It was written equally a Christian skilful-goodbye; it was chosen along by no person or occasion, simply was deliberately equanimous as a Christian hymn on the basis of the etymology of "proficient-good day," which means "God exist with you." The first stanza was sent to two dissimilar composers, one of musical note, the other [William Yard. 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 first stanza was published in 1880 with the tune GOD BE WITH Y'all past William Chiliad. 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 L. Moody and Ira D. Sankey (PHH 73). Modern hymnals usually print only four stanzas.

The text is essentially a departing approving, a prayer that God will guide you lot (st. 1), feed you (st. 2), and protect you lot in life and in death (st. 3-iv). Each stanza is framed by the phrase "God exist with you till we meet again."

A graduate of Middlebury College, 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 Academy, Washington, D.C., a school famous for its many prominent African American graduates. Rankin issued 3 volumes of poetry and hymn texts (of which "God Exist 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 Apply:
Though traditionally used when ministers, missionaries, or others have their leave from a congregation, this hymn is generally useful every bit a dismissal hymn, as a prayer for blessing, and as a sung benediction.
