The day is past and over;

All thanks, O Lord, to Thee

We pray Thee now that sinless

The hours of dark may be;

O Jesus, keep us in Thy sight,

And guard us through the coming Night

The joys of day are over;

We lift our hearts to Thee

And ak Thee that offencelss

The hours of dark may be:

O Jesus, make their darkness light,

And guard us throgu the coming Night.

The toils of day are over

We raise our hymn to Thee

And ask that free from peril

The hours of dark may be:

O Jesus, keep us in Thy sight,

And guard us through the coming Night

Be Thou our soul’s Preserver,

For Thou, O God, dost know

How many are the perils,

Awaiting us below,

O loving Jesus, hear our call

And guard and save us from them.
