LyicsThus far the Lord hath led me on,
Thus far his power prolongs my days;
And every evening I shall make known,
Some fresh memorial of his grace.
I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
Thus, when the night of death shall come,
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground,
And wait thy voice to break my tomb,
With sweet salvation in the sound.
