LyicsMy God was with me all the night,
And gave me sweet repose;
His angels watch'd me while I slept,
Or I had never rose.
Now for the mercies of the night,
My humble thanks I'll pay;
And unto God I'll dedicate
The first fruits of the day.
In midst of dangers, fear and death,
Thy goodness I'll adore,
And praise thee for thy mercies past,
And humbly hope for more.
As long as God preserves my life,
Thy sacrifice I'll be;
And when my death shall cease my strife,
My soul shall join with thee.
