The hours of dark may be:
O JESU, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night.
The joys of day are over;
I lift my heart to Thee, And ask Thee that offenceless The hours of dark may be:

And guard me through the coming night.

I raise the hymn to Thee, And ask that free from peril The hours of dark may be:
