Lyics

And now another day is gone,

I'll sing my Maker's praise;

My conforts ev'ry hour make known

His providence and grace.



I lay my body down to sleep;

Let angels guard my head;

And through the hours of darkness keep

Their watch around my bed.



With cheerful heart I close my eyes,

Since thou wilt not remove;

And in the morning let me rise,

Rejoicing in thy love.
