Hymnal: Christian Hymns #188 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Through the day Thy love hath spared us,
Now we lay us down to rest;
Through the silent watches guard us,
Let no foe our peace molest;
Jesus, Thou our guardian be,
Sweet it is to trust in Thee.
2 Pilgrims here on earth, and strangers,
Dwelling in the midst of foes,
Us and ours preserve from dangers,
In Thine arms may we repose,
And, when life's short day is past,
Rest with Thee in heaven at last. Topics: Worship Evening ; Life Brevity, Uncertainty and Solemnity of; Life a pilgrimage Languages: English Tune Title: CONSOLATION
