Through the night

(one verse introduction)

Through the night your angels kept
Watch be-side us while we slept;
Now the dark- has passed away,
Thank you, God, for this- new day.

North and south and east and west
May your ho-ly Name be blessed;
Everywhere- beneath the sun,
As in heav'n, your will- be done.

Give us food that we may live;
Every thoughtlessness please forgive;
Keep all e-vil things away
From your people here- today.
