Giver and guardian of my sleep,
To praise thy name I wake:
Still, Lord, thy helpless servant keep,
For thine own mercy's sake.
The blessing of another day
I thankfully receive:
O may I only thee obey,
And to thy glory live!
Upon me lay thy mighty hand,
My words and thoughts restrain;
Bow my whole soul to thy command,
Nor let my faith be vain.
Prisoner of hope, I wait the hour
Which shall salvation bring;
When all I am shall own thy power,
And call my Jesus King.
