All Night, All Day

Hymnary Friends,

Please pardon this brief interruption, and please consider a gift today to support the work of Hymnary.org. Here's why.

Each month half a million people visit this website for free access to the most complete database of North American hymnody on the planet. But this project does not come without a cost, and we have limited sources of revenue. Twice a year we hold a fund drive, and these drives are critical to our future.

So if you benefit from Hymnary.org, would you consider a donation today? Even small amounts help, and they also let us know you're behind us and support what we do.

Click the Donate button below to be taken to a secure giving site. Or you can make your tax-deductible contribution by sending a check to Hymnary.org at 3201 Burton SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546.

On behalf of the entire Hymnary.org team, our thanks.
Harry Plantinga

Refrain:
All night, all day,
angels watchin' over me, my Lord.
All night, all day,
angels watchin' over me.

1 Day is dying' in the west,
angels watchin' over me, my Lord.
Sleep, my child, and take your rest,
angels watchin' over me. [Refrain]

2 Now I lay me down to sleep,
angels watchin' over me, my Lord.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep,
angels watchin' over me. [Refrain]
