The Day Is Past And Over;
thanks, O Lord, to Thee;
I pray Thee now that sinless
The hours of dark may be:
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.
The joys of day are over;
I lift my heart to Thee,
And ask Thee that offenceless
The hours of dark may be:
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.
The toils of day are over;
I raise the hymn to Thee,
And ask that free from peril
The hours of dark may be:
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.
Be Thou my souls preserver,
For Thou alone dost know
How many are the perils
Through which I have to go:
O loving Jesus, hear my call,
And guard and save me from them all.
The Day Is Past And Over Lyrics
