|
|
<p>Now that the daylight fills the sky,<br>
|
|
We lift our hearts to God on high,<br>
|
|
That He, in all we do or say,<br>
|
|
Would keep us free from harm today.</p>
|
|
<p>May He restrain our tongues from strife,<br>
|
|
And shield from anger’s din our life,<br>
|
|
And guard with watchful care our eyes<br>
|
|
From earth’s absorbing vanities.</p>
|
|
<p>O may our inmost hearts be pure,<br>
|
|
From thoughts of folly kept secure,<br>
|
|
And pride of sinful flesh subdued<br>
|
|
Through sparing use of daily food.</p>
|
|
<p>So we, when this day’s work is o’er,<br>
|
|
And shades of night return once more,<br>
|
|
Our path of trial safely trod,<br>
|
|
Shall give the glory to our God.</p>
|
|
<p>All praise to God the Father be,<br>
|
|
All praise, eternal Son, to Thee,<br>
|
|
Whom with the Spirit we adore<br>
|
|
Forever and forevermore.</p>
