God, that madest earth and heaven, Darkness and light, Who the day for toil hast given, For rest the night: May Thine angel guards defend us, Slumber sweet Thy mercy send us; Holy dreams and hopes attend us, This livelong night. | Guard us waking, guard us sleeping; And when we die, May we, in Thy mighty keeping, All peaceful lie. When the last dread trump shall wake us, Do not Thou, our God forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With Thee on high. |
