Lyics

MY God, how endless is thy love!

Thy gifts are every evening new;

And morning mercies, from above,

Gently distill, 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.
