lyrics

The day is past and gone, the evening shades appear
Oh may we all remember well, the night of death is near

We lay our garments by, upon our beds to rest
So death will soon disrobe us all of what we now possess

Lord, keep us safe this night, secure from all our fears
Beneath the wings of your love till morning light appears
Till morning light appears

And when we early rise and view the unwearied sun
May we set out to win the prize and after glory run

Lord, keep us safe this night, secure from all our fears
Beneath the wings of your love till morning light appears
Till morning light appears

And when our days are past and we from time remove
Oh may we in Your presence rest – the presence of your love

Lord, keep us safe this night, secure from all our fears
Beneath the wings of your love till morning light appears
Lord, keep us safe this night, secure from all our fears
Beneath the wings of your love till morning light appears
Till morning light appears
