Verse 1:
Saviour, breathe an evening blessing,
Ere repose our spirits seal;
Sin and want we come confessing;
Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal.
Verse 2:
Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot hide from Thee;
Thou art He who, never weary,
Watchest where Thy people be.
Verse 3:
Though destruction walk around us,
Though the arrow past us fly,
Angel guards from Thee surround us,
We are safe if Thou art nigh.
Verse 4:
Should swift death this night o’ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb,
May the morn of glory wake us,
Clad in light and deathless bloom.
