560 L. M. Thomas Tallis, 1515-85 All praise to Thee, my God, this night, For all the blessings of the light; Keep me, O keep me, King of kings, Be-neath Thine own al- mighty wings. 2 Forgive me, Lord; for Thy dear Son, 3 Teach me to live, that I may dread 4 O may my soul on Thee repose, And with sweet sleep mine eyelids close- 5 When in the night I sleepless lie, My soul with heavenly thoughts supply; T. Ken, 1693 Arr. fr. C. M. von Weber, 1826 1 564 6, 4, 6, 6. J. H. Hopkins, 1872 Let love a wake, and pay Her eve-ning sac 2 As Christ upon the cross And to His Father's hand His parting soul resigned; 3 So now herself my soul In whom all spirits live; 4 So now beneath His eye 5 Save that His will be done, Dead to herself, and dead 6 Thus would I live; yet now In all His power and love 7 One sacred Trinity, One Lord divine; May I be ever His, And He for ever mine. Anon. (Latin) 2 Let evil thoughts and spirits flee before us; 3 Let pious thoughts be ours when sleep o'ertakes us; 4 Through Thy Beloved soothe the sick and weeping, 5 We have no refuge, none on earth to aid us; Who seek Thee only. 6 Father, Thy name be praised, Thy kingdom given; Us now and ever. P. Herbert. 1566 |
