Indulgent God, whose bounteous care
O’er all thy works is shown,
O let my grateful praise and prayer
Ascend before thy throne!
What mercies has this day bestowed!
How largely hast thou blest!
My cup with plenty overflowed,
With cheerfulness my breast.
Now may sweet slumbers close my eyes,
From pain and sickness free;
And let my waking thoughts arise,
To meditate on thee.
So bless each future day and night,
Till life’s fond scene is o’er;
At length, to realms of endless light
Enraptured let me soar.
