Savior, Breathe an Evening Blessing

Verse 1

Savior, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing; Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal.

Verse 2

Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He who, never weary, Watchest where Thy people be.

Verse 3

Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow past us fly, Angel guards from Thee surround us, We are safe if Thou art nigh.

Verse 4

Should swift death this night o'ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn of glory wake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom.
