29. Great God in heav'n, who by my bed

1 Great God in heav'n, who by my bed
Thy faithful watch didst keep;
And night's best blessings o'er me shed,
Sweet rest and balmy sleep.

2 I thank Thee, Lord and Father mild,
And all thine angels, too;
And pray Thee still to help Thy child,
Thy holy will to do.
