Thou Lord of the Morning <br /> Oh King of the night <br /> I thank Thee for keeping <br /> My footsteps aright. <br /> <br /> My hand has been set <br /> To do many a sin <br /> Thou guardest me gently <br /> And bringeth me in <br /> <br /> To thy fold in the evening <br /> From the rocks on the hill <br /> Where the evil one lingers <br /> To entice me on still. <br /> <br /> So guide me and keep me <br /> While my life shall last <br /> And give me Thy peace <br /> When my journey is past.<br /><br />John W.
