Tune:ST. TIMOTHY
Composer:Henry W. Baker

6. My Father, for another night

1 My Father, for another night
Of quiet sleep and rest,
For all the joy of morning light,
Thy holy Name be blest.

2 Now with the newborn day I give
Myself anew to Thee,
That as Thou willest I may live,
And what thou willest be.

3 Whate'er I do, things great or small,
Whate'er I speak or frame,
Thy glory may I seek in all,
Do all in Jesus' Name.

4 My Father, for His sake, I pray
Thy child accept and bless;
And lead me by Thy grace today
In paths of righteousness.

Amen.
