Composer: | Joseph Barnby |
1 Now the day is over,
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the ev'ning
Steal across the sky.
2 Jesus, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose;
With Thy tend'rest blessing
May our eyelids close.
3 Grant to little children
Vision's bright of Thee;
Guard the sailors tossing
On the deep blue sea.
4 Thro' the long night-watches
May Thine angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching 'round my bed.
5 When the morning wakens,
Then may I arise
Pure and fresh and sinless
In Thy holy eyes.
Amen.
