Jesus, Saviour, On Thy Breast
I Would Lay Me Down To Rest;
While Mine Eyelids Gently Close,
Thou Wilt Grant Me Calm Repose.
May Thine Angels Vigil Keep
While I Lay Me Down To Sleep.
Lord, This Wayward Heart Forgive,
Teach Me More Like Thee To Live;
Every Evil Thought Subdue;
May Thy Grace My Strength Renew.
May Thine Angels Vigil Keep
While I Lay Me Down To Sleep.
When The Day Of Life Is Past,
And The Twilight Comes At Last,
When I Cross The Narrow Sea,
I Shall Still Abide In Thee.
May Thine Angels Vigil Keep
While I Lay Me Down To Sleep.
