Through the night the angels kept
Watch beside me while I slept;
Now the dark has passed away,
Thank you, Lord, for this new day.
North and south and east and west,
May all things be heaven-blessed;
Keep me safe in work and play,
Thank you, Lord, for this new day.
Morning, noon, and through the night,
Help me, Lord, to do what’s right;
May you always guide my way
Thank you, Lord, for this new day.
