Hymnal: The Sunday School Hymnal #17 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, ere in sweet repose
I my weary eyelids close,
Let me love with perfect love
Child and man, and God above.
2 Guard me when in sleep I lie,
Plead for me with God on high;
All that stained my soul today,
Wash it in Thy blood away.
3 If my slumbers broken be,
Waking, let me think of Thee;
Darkness cannot make me fear
If I feel that Thou art near. Topics: Darkness; Evening; Sleep Tune Title: SEYMOUR (WEBER)
Saviour, ere in sweet repose
