Author: Thomas Ken Hymnal: Voices United #440 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Glory to you, my God, this night Lyrics: 1 Glory to you, my God, this night,
for all the blessings of the light;
keep me, O keep me, King of kings,
beneath your own almighty wings.
2 Forgive me, God, through your dear Son,
the wrong that I this day have done;
that peace with you and all may be,
before I sleep, restored to me.
3 Teach me to live, that I may dread
the grave as little as my bed;
teach me to die, so that I may
rise glorious at the awesome day.
4 O may my soul on you repose,
and restful sleep mine eyelids close,
sleep that shall me more vigorous make
to serve my God when I awake.
5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
in heaven above and earth below;
our God, three persons we adore --
be praises given for evermore.
