From the pow'r of evil hide us, In the narrow pathway guide us, Never be Your smile denied us All through the day. 3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping, And when we die, May we in Your mighty keeping All peaceful lie. When the last dread call shall wake us, Then, O Lord, do not forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With You on high. 4 Holy Father, throned in heaven, All-holy Son, Holy Spirit, freely given, Blest Three in One: Grant us grace, we now implore You, Till we lay our crowns before You And in worthier strains adore You While ages run.
