The Hymnal for Boys and Girls ‎#91

91. Through the Night Thy Spirit Kept

1 Through the night thy spirit kept
Watch beside me while I slept;
Now the dark has passed away,
Thank thee, Lord, for this new day.

2 North and south and east and west
May thy holy name be blest;
Everywhere beneath the sun,
As in heav'n, thy will be done.

3 Give me food that I may live;
Every naughtiness forgive;
Keep all evil things away
From thy children thro' this day.

Amen.
