Hymn 333 THE DAY IS PAST AND OVER Lyrics

1. The day is past and over,
All thanks, O Lord, to Thee;
I pray thee now that sinless
The hours of dark may be;
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.

2. The joys of day are over;
I lift my heart to thee,
And ask Thee that offenceless
The hours of dark may be;
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.

3. The toils of day are over;
I raise the hymn to Thee
I raise the hymn to Thee
And ask that free from peril
The hours of dark may be O Jesus,
keep me in thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night

4. Be Thou my souls preserver,
For Thou alone dost know
Through which I have to go:
How many are the perils
O loving Jesus, hear my call,
And guard and save me from them all.
