At Night
The day is done; dear God, may I
Safe in Your watchful presence
lie.
O make Your Love to live supreme
In every passing dream I dream.
May Night's kind hours come and see
How still and good a Child can be.
Then will they leave some gifts behind
To bless my body, heart, and mind.
The day is done; O dear God, spread
Your Love and Wisdom o'er my head.
Rest for my body, heart, and mind
In Sleep's great Kingdom I shall find.
Good Dreams, like faithful Friends, shall
be
A sweet and restful help to me.
Then shall another day bring light
After the blessings of to-night.
AMEN.
