When we, with welcome slumber press'd,
Had clos'd our weary eyes,
A pow'r unseen secured our rest,
And made us joyful rise.
Numbers this night have doubtless met
Their long eternal doom;
And lost the joys of morning light,
In death's tremendous gloom.
But life to us its light prolongs,—
Let warmest thanks arise;
Great God, accept our morning songs?
Our willing sacrifice.
