Text: | Savior, Breathe an Evening Blessing |
Author: | James Edmeston, 1791-1867 |
Tune: | EVENING PRAYER |
Composer: | George C. Stebbins, 1846-1945 |
1 Savior, breathe an evening blessing
Ere repose our spirits seal;
Sin and want we come confessing,
Thou canst save and Thou canst heal.
2 Though destruction walk around us,
Though the arrows past us fly,
Angel guards from Thee surround us;
We are safe if Thou art nigh.
3 Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot hide from Thee;
Thou are He who, never weary,
Watchest where Thy people be.
4 Should swift death this night o'ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb,
May the morn in heaven awake us,
Clad in bright and deathless bloom.
Amen.
