Lyics

My God, how endless is thy love!

Thy gifts are ev'ry evening now;

And morning mercies, from above,

Gently distil like early dew.



Thou spreadst the curtains of the night,

Great guardian of my sleeping hours,

Thy sovereign word restores the light,

And quickens all my drowsy powers.



I yield my powers to thy command,

To thee I consecrate my days;

Perpetual blessings from thy hand,

Demand perpetual songs of praise.
