Verse 1
Thy love has spared our lives today,
Though we lay down, spent and worn,
Guard us in the stillness of night,
Us no powers of darkness harm;
Jesus be our Guardian ever,
It is sweet to trust in Thee.

Verse 2
Pilgrims in this world and strangers,
Dwelling in the midst of foes;
Keep us and dear ones from danger,
On thy wings in comfort sleep;
And when life's distress is over,
May our souls respose in Thee.
