Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Thomas Kelly, 1806.
Music: "Dretzel," C. H. Dretzel, 1731
Through the day Thy love has spared us;
Now we lay us down to rest;
Through the silent watches guard us,
Let no foe our peace molest;
Jesus, Thou our Guardian be;
Sweet it is to trust in Thee.
Pilgrims here on earth, and strangers,
Dwelling in the midst of foes;
Us and ours preserve from dangers;
In Thine arms may we repose.
And, when life's sad day is past,
Rest with Thee in heav'n at last.
