The Cyber Hymnal ‎#1334

1334. Ere I Sleep, for Every Favor

1. Ere I sleep, for every favor,
This day showed, by my God,
I will bless my Savior.

2. O my Lord, what shall I render
To Thy name, still the same,
Gracious, good, and tender?

3. Leave me not, but ever love me;
Let Thy peace, be my bliss,
Till Thou hence remove me.
