Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world, we pray,
That with thy wonted favor, thou
Wouldst be our Guard and Keeper now.
|
|
From all ill dreams defend our sight,
From fears and terrors of the night;
Withhold from us our ghostly foe,
That spot of sin we may not know.
|
|
O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, thine only Son;
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
