<p>Now God be with us, for the night is closing:<br>
The light and darkness are of His disposing,<br>
And &#8217;neath His shadow here to rest we yield us,<br>
For He will shield us.</p>
<p>Let evil thoughts and spirits flee before us;<br>
Till morning cometh, watch, O Master, o&#8217;er us;<br>
In soul and body Thou from harm defend us,<br>
Thine angels send us.</p>
<p>Let holy thoughts be ours when sleep o&#8217;ertakes us,<br>
Our earliest thoughts be Thine when morning wakes us,<br>
All day serve Thee, in all that we are doing,<br>
Thy praise pursuing.</p>
<p>As Thy belov&egrave;d, soothe the sick and weeping,<br>
And bid the prisoner lose his griefs in sleeping;<br>
Widows and orphans, we to Thee commend them,<br>
Do Thou befriend them.</p>
<p>We have no refuge, none on earth to aid us,<br>
Save Thee, O Father, Who Thine own hast made us;<br>
But Thy dear presence will not leave them lonely<br>
Who seek Thee only.</p>
<p>Father, Thy Name be praised, Thy kingdom given,<br>
Thy will be done on earth as &#8217;tis in heaven;<br>
Keep us in life, forgive our sins, deliver<br>
Us now and ever!</p>
