Rankin said this about the hymn, “Written…as a Christian goodbye, it was called forth by no person or occasion, but was deliberately composed as a Christian hymn on basis of the etymology of “goodbye,” which is “God be with you.” Rankin got the idea for the first stanza of the song when he saw the dictionary definition of "good-bye" was short for "God be with you." The hymn was written in 1882 when Rankin was 54 years old. (TheTabernacleChoir.org) William Tomer composed the music. During the war, many postcards were printed with hymn lyrics to help soldiers in battle feel at ease. One such postcard was a colorful picture of soldiers going to battle with the following verse: “God be with you till we meet again; keep love's banner floating o'er you, smite death's threatening wave before you; God be with you till we meet again.
