Now Rest Beneath Night's Shadows

Author: Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now rest beneath night's shadows All woodlands, fields, and meadows, The world in slumber lies. But thou, my soul, awake thee, To song and pray'r betake thee, Let praise to thy Creator rise. 2 The rule of day is over, And shining jewels cover The sky above so blue. Thus I shall shine in heaven, Where crowns of gold are given To all who faithful stay and true. 3 Ye members weak and tired, Enjoy the rest desired, The quiet sleep ye crave. There comes a time for sleeping In God's own faithful keeping, When ye are bedded in your grave. 4 My tired eyes are closing, And while I lie reposing, Soul, body, where are ye? To Thee be they commended, O God, till night is ended; Thy waking Eye watch over me! 5 Lord Jesus, who dost love me, Thy pinions spread above me And shield me well from harm. Let angel guards attend me, And from the foe defend me, That I may rest without alarm. Topics: Morning and Evening Used With Tune: [Now rest beneath night's shadows]

Author: H. Steffensen Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 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. Topics: Morning and Evening Used With Tune: [O God, before I slumber]
