1 God, who madest earth and heaven,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Who the day and night hast given,
Sun and moon, and starry host,
Thou whose mighty hand sustains
Earth and all that she contains;

2 Praise to thee my soul shall render,
Who this night hast guarded me,
My omnipotent defender,
Who from ill doth set me free;
Free from danger, anguish, woe,
Free from the infernal foe. A-men.

3 Let the night of my transgression
With night's darkness pass away;
Jesus, into thy possession
I resign myself to-day;
In thy wounds I find relief
From my greatest sin and grief.

4 Let my life and conversation
Be directed by thy word;
Lord, thy constant preservation
To thy erring child afford.
Nowhere but alone in thee
From all harm can I be free.

5 Wholly to thy blest protection
I commit my heart and mind;
Mighty God, to thy direction
Wholly may I be resigned.
Lord, my shield, my light divine,
O accept, and own me thine.

Amen.
