55 ~ Now God Be With Us

1

Now God be with us, for the night is closing: The light and darkness are of His disposing, And ’neath His shadow here to rest we yield us, For He will shield us.

2

Let evil thoughts and spirits flee before us; Till morning cometh, watch, O Master, o’er us; In soul and body Thou from harm defend us, Thine angels send us.

3

We have no refuge, none on earth to aid us, Save Thee, O Father, who Thine own hast made us; But Thy dear presence will not leave them lonely Who seek Thee only.

4

Father, Thy Name be praised, Thy kingdom given, Thy will be done on earth as ’tis in Heaven; Keep us in life, forgive our sins, deliver Us now and ever!
