Songtext von Evensong

Now as I lay me down to sleep I pray, Thee Lord, my soul to keep Oh, guide me in Thy tender care Thy presence calm my every fear Now as I lay me down to rest My wrongful heart I do confess Oh, Saviour cleanse me from the sin Bring peace with Thee And peace with man Now as my children gently sleep May love and beauty fill their dreams I pray they seek Thy path at rest And on Thy promise lay their heads Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen By Thy grace to rise again Now turn our hearts toward Thy way Help those in doubt, in loss, in pain Oh Lord, have mercey on this world Thy song of hope be ever heard Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen By Thy grace to rise again By Thy grace to rise again Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen
