LyicsLord, in the morning I will send
My cries to reach thy ear;
Thou art my father and my friend,
My help, forever near.
O lead me, keep me, all this day,
Near thee, in perfect peace;
Help me to watch, to watch and pray,
To pray and never cease.
I know my roving feet will err,
Unless thou be my guide;
Warn me of every foe and snare,
And keep me near thy side.
Then shall I pass all dangers safe,
And tread the tempter down;
My trust, my hope, joy and relief,
Shall be in thee alone.
Then let my moments smoothly run,
And sing my hours away;
Till evening shades and setting suns
Conclude in endless day.
