HYMN LXXXII. FOR THE EVENING.
Saviour, Thou hast bestow'd on me
The blessing of the light,
And wilt my kind Preserver be
Through this approaching night.
The blessing of the light,
And wilt my kind Preserver be
Through this approaching night.
Evil from me far off remove,
That, with Thy favour bless'd,
Beneath the shadow of Thy love
I in Thine arms may rest.
That, with Thy favour bless'd,
Beneath the shadow of Thy love
I in Thine arms may rest.
Thy gracious eye which never sleeps
Is always fix'd on man;
Thy love the slumbering children keeps
From sorrow, fear, and pain.
Is always fix'd on man;
Thy love the slumbering children keeps
From sorrow, fear, and pain.
Wherefore I safely lay me down,
And trust myself to Thee,
The Father's well-beloved Son,
Who ever pray'st for me.
And trust myself to Thee,
The Father's well-beloved Son,
Who ever pray'st for me.
