On changing my Lodgings.
Tho I have chang'd my nightly Home,
To take a Lodging here;
Yet still, to Thee, my God! I come,
For thou art ev'ry where.
To take a Lodging here;
Yet still, to Thee, my God! I come,
For thou art ev'ry where.
I trust, that Angels round my Bed
Shall my blest Guardians be:
And when to sleep I lay my Head,
I hope to rest with Thee.
Shall my blest Guardians be:
And when to sleep I lay my Head,
I hope to rest with Thee.
Supply me, Lord, with pious Dreams,
Let no vain Scenes arise:
And give my Heart some heav'nly Themes,
When I unclose my Eyes.
Let no vain Scenes arise:
And give my Heart some heav'nly Themes,
When I unclose my Eyes.

That, waking and asleep, I may
In Thee alone delight:
May meditate thy Works all Day,
And see thy Face at Night.
In Thee alone delight:
May meditate thy Works all Day,
And see thy Face at Night.
