Author: Harriet M. Kimball Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9194 Meter: 10.10.10.6 First Line: The day is ended. Ere I sink to sleep Lyrics: 1 The day is ended. Ere I sink to sleep
My weary spirit seeks repose in Thine;
Father, forgive my trespasses, and keep
This little life of mine.
2 With loving kindness curtain Thou my bed,
And cool in rest my burning pilgrim feet,
Thy pardon be the pillow for my head;
So shall my rest be sweet.
3 At peace with all the world, dear Lord, and Thee,
No fears my soul’s unwavering faith can shake;
All’s well, whichever side the grave for me
The morning light may break. Languages: English Tune Title: BIRKDALE
