A Midnight Hymn
To thee, all glorious, ever blessed Power, I consecrate this silent midnight hour While solemn darkness covers o'er the sky. And all things wrapp'd in gentle slumbers h Unwearied let me praise thy holy Name
- For the rich mercies which thy hand impart
Health to my flesh, and comfort to my heart O my my prayer before thy throne arise; An humble but accepted sacrifice And when thou dost my weary eye lids close And to my body grant a soft repose, May my ethereal Guardian kindly spread His wings, and from the tempter screen my head; Grant of celestial light some piercing beam; To bless my sleep and sanctify my dreams ______________________________________-
- And every thought with gratitude inflame
