O God of grace, thy mercy send;
let thy protecting arm defend;
save us and keep us to the end:
have mercy, Lord.
And through the coming hours of night
fill us, we pray, with holy light;
keep us all sinless in thy sight:
grant this, O Lord.
May some bright messenger abide
for ever by thy servants' side,
a faithful guardian and our guide:
grant this, O Lord.
From every sin in mercy free;
let heart and conscience stainless be,
that we may live henceforth for thee:
grant this, O Lord.
We would not be thy care oppressed,
but in thy love and wisdom rest;
give what thou seest to be best:
grant this, O Lord.
While we of every sin repent,
let our remaining years be spent
in holiness and sweet content:
grant this, O Lord.
And when the end of life is near,
may we, unashamed and void of fear,
wait for the judgment to appear:
grant this, O Lord.
