LyicsLord of my life, O may thy praise
Employ my noblest pow'rs,
Whose goodness lengthens out my days,
And fills the circling hours.
Preserv'd by thine almighty arm,
I pass'd the shades of night,
Serene and safe from ev'ry harm,
And see returning light.
O let the same almighty care
My waking hours attend;
From ev'ry danger, ev'ry snare,
My heedless steps defend.
Smile on my minutes as they roll,
And guide my future days;
And let thy goodness fill my soul
With gratitude and praise.
