ATHER in heaven,

All through the night

ΑΠ

I have been resting
Safe in thy sight;
Father, I thank Thee,
Bless me, I pray,
Bless me and keep me
All through the day.

2 Make me like sunshine,
Happy and bright,
Speaking no cross word,
Bringing delight.
Truthful and humble,
Quick to obey,

If I would please Thee,
That is the way.

3 Help me to please Thee,
Teach me to be

Gentle and loving:

Smile upon me.
Though I am little
Make me be good,

Doing my best as

Little ones should.

T with rosy light,

HE morning bright,

Hath waked me from my sleep;

Father, I own,

Thy love alone,

Thy little one doth keep.
2 All through the day
I humbly pray,

Be Thou my guard and guide;
My sins forgive,

And let me live,

Blest Jesus, near thy side.

3 0, make thy rest
Within my breast,
Great Spirit of all grace;
Make me like Thee,
Then shall I be
Prepared to see thy face.

JESUS

ESUS, holy, undefiled,
Listen to a little child;
Thou hast sent the glorious light
Chasing far the silent night.

2 Thou hast sent the sun to shine
O'er this glorious world of thine ;
Warmth to give, and pleasant glow,
On each tender flower below.

3 Now the little birds arise,

Chirping gayly in the skies;
Thee their tiny voices praise
In the early songs they raise.
4 Thou by whom the birds are fed,
Give to me my daily bread;
And thy Holy Spirit give,
Without whom I cannot live.

5 Make me, Lord, obedient, mild,
As becomes a little child;
All day long, in every way,
Teach me what to do and say.
6 Help me never to forget
That in thy great book is set
All that children think and say,
For the awful Judgment Day.
7 Let me never say a word
That will make Thee angry, Lord;
Help me so to live in love,

As thine angels do above.

8 Make me, Lord, in work and play,
Thine more truly every day;

And when Thou at last shall come,
Take me to thy heavenly home.

EVENING HYMN.

ESUS! tender Shepherd, hear me !
Bless thy little lamb to-night!

JES

Through the darkness be Thou near me,
Watch my sleep till morning light.

2 All this day thy hand has led me,
And I thank Thee for thy care;
Thou hast clothed me, warmed and fed me,
Listen to my evening prayer.

3 Let my sins be all forgiven !

Bless the friends I love so well!
Take me, when I die, to heaven,
Happy there with Thee to dwell.
