At peace with all the world, etc.
The day is ended. Ere I sink to sleep,
My weary spirit seeks repose in thine;
Father! forgive my trespasses, and keep
This little life of mine.
2 With loving kindness curtain thou my bed,
And cool in rest my burning pilgrim feet;
Thy pardon be the pillow for my head—
So shall my sleep be sweet.
3 At peace with all the world, dear Lord, and thee,
No fears my soul’s unwavering faith can shake;
All’s well, whichever side the grave for me
The morning light may break!
Kimball.
