Father, breathe an evening blessing
Ere repose onr spirits seal ;
Sin and want we come confessing;
Thou canst save and thou canst heal.
Though destruction walk around me,
Though the arrows past us fly.
Angel guards from thee surround us;
We are safe, if thou art nigh.
Though the night be dark and dreary.
Darkness cannot hide from thee ;
Thou art he who, never weary.
Watches where thy people be.
When the night of death o'ertakes us.
And commands us to the tomb.
May the morn in heav'n awake us.
Clad in bright, eternal bloom.
