Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening,
Steal across the sky.
Father, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose,
With Thy tend'rest blessing
May our eyelids close.
Grant to little children
Visions bright of Thee,
Guard the sailors, tossing
On the deep blue sea.
Comfort every sufferer
Watching late in pain;
Those who plan some evil
From their sin restrain.
Through the long night-watches,
May Thine Angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching around my bed.
When the morning wakens,
Then may I arise
Pure, and fresh, and sinless,
In Thy Holy Eyes.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GUIDANCE (Merrial)
