My Father, for Another Night

My Fa­ther

for an­oth­er night

Of qui­et sleep and rest

For all the joy of morn­ing light

Thy ho­ly name be blest.

Now with the new­born day I give

Myself anew to Thee

That as Thou will­est I may live

And what Thou will­est be.

Whate’er I do

things great or small

Whate’er I speak or frame

Thy glo­ry may I seek in all

Do all in Je­sus’ name.

My Fa­ther

for His sake

I pray

Thy child ac­cept and bless;

And lead me by Thy grace to­day

In paths of right­eous­ness.
