Lyics

WITH thee, great God, the stores of light

And stores of darkness lie'

Thou form'st the sable robe of night,

And spread'st it round the sky.



And when with welcome slumbers press'd

We close our weary eyes,

Thy pow'r unseen secures our rest,

And make us joyous rise.



To thee, great God, in thankful songs

Our morning thoughts arise;

Assist us, Lord, to offer up

A grateful sacrifice.
