The Morning Stars Sang Together ‎#28

28. Good night

1 All good night!
Now is labor ended quite!
Now the day is softly closing,
Busy hands from foil reposing,
'Till new morning wakes in light.
All good night!

2 Sweet repose!
Now all weary eyelids close!
Silence rests on field and mountain,
Softly murmur brook and fountain,
Peace o'er all things night fall throws;
Sweet repose!

3 Peaceful sleep!
Sleep till morning's dawn doth peep!
Sleep until another morrow,
Brings its care and joy and sorrow,
Sleep, our Father watch will keep;
Peaceful sleep!
