1 O God, before I slumber This night, now dark and somber, Incline Thine ear to me; For all, which Thou hast given, For Thy sweet gifts from heaven, I give my humble thanks to Thee. 2 Thy grace and loving kindness To me, beset with blindness, I do not understand; The more Thy gifts I ponder, The greater is my wonder, When I behold Thy bounteous hand. 3 Each day, anew beginning, I know that I am sinning Against Thy precious Word; But Thou my sins forgivest, Thou, who forever livest, A merciful and faithful Lord. 4 Thou unto me art bending And hearest when I'm sending To Thee my longing sigh; My soul Thy grace adoreth, Thy Spirit me restoreth To worship Thee, my God on high. 5 O Lord, my Comfort tender, To Thee I do surrender My body, soul, and all. I lay me down asleeping, Relying on Thy keeping, And on Thy mighty arm I fall. | Hymnal for Church and Home (2nd ed.) #55 (1928) Hymnal for Church and Home #55 (1927) |
