1 All praise to Thee, my God, this night,
for all the blessings of the light!
Keep me, O keep me, King of kings,
beneath Thine own almighty wings.
2 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
the ill that I this day have done,
that with the world, myself, and Thee,
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.
3 Teach me to live, that I may dread
the grave as little as my bed.
Teach me to die, that so I may
rise glorious at the judgment day.
3 O may my soul on Thee repose,
and with sweet sleep mine eyelids close,
sleep that may me more vigorous make
to serve my God when I awake.
5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
praise Him, all creature here below;
praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
