78. My God, how endless is Thy love!

1 My God, how endless is Thy love!
Thy gifts are every evening new;
And morning mercies from above
Gently distil like earthly dew.

2 Thou spread'st the curtains of the night,
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours;
Thy sovereign word restores the light,
And quickens all my waking powers.

3 I yield my powers to Thy command;
To Thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings from Thy hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise.

Amen.
