Text: | Sun Of My Soul |

Tune: | [Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear] |
Composer: | Peter Ritter |
1 Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear,
It is not night if Thou be near;
Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes!
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last tho't—how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior's breast!
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
4 Be near to bless me when I wake
Ere thro' the world our way I take;
Abide with me till in Thy love
I lose myself in heav'n above.
