131. All praise to Thee, my God, this night

1 All praise to Thee, my God, this night.
For all the blessings of the light:
Keep me, oh! keep me, King of kings,
Beneath Thine own almighty wings!

2 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
The ill that I this day have done:
That with the world, myself and Thee,
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.

3 Teach me to live, that I my dread
The grave as little as my bed;
To die, that this vile body may
Rise glorious at the awful day.

4 Oh! when shall I, in endless day,
Forever chase dark sleep away,
And hymns divine with angels sing
In endless praise to Thee, my King?

5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him, above, ye heavenly host,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
