When shades of night around me spread,
I’ll all my ways rehearse,
In silent stillness on my bed,
And with my heart converse.
To God my sacrifice shall rise
Of righteousness and praise,
While on his name my heart relies,
And pleads the Saviour’s grace.
“Where, where shall any good be found!”
The thoughtless many cry;
Lord, let thy light my soul surround,
And lift my triumphs high.
Safe in thy guardian care I close
My weary sleeping eyes:
Safe shall my slum’bring dust repose,
Till thou shalt bid it rise.
