Lyics

Ere I sleep, for ev'ry favour,

This day show'd

By my God,

I do bless my Saviour,

I do bless my Saviour.



Leave me not, but ever love me;

Let thy peace,

Be my bliss,

Till thou hence remove me,

Till thou hence remove me.



Thou, my rock, my guard, my tower,

Safely keep,

While I sleep,

Me, with all thy power,

Me, with all thy power.
