English Lyrics
Verse 1
Savior, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing; Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal.
Verse 2
Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He who, never weary, Watchest where Thy people be.
Verse 3
Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow past us fly, Angel guards from Thee surround us, We are safe if Thou art nigh.
Verse 4
Should swift death this night o'ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn of glory wake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom.
