Laudes Domini ‎#169

169. "Perpetual blessings"

1 My God, how endless is your love!
Thy gifts are every evening new;
And morning mercies, from above,
Gently distil, like earthly dew.

2 Thou spread'st the curtains of the night,
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours;
Thy sovereign word restores the light,
And quickens all my drowsy powers.

3 I yield my powers to thy command;
To thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings from thy hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise.
