bred dina vida vingar
thy holy wings, o savior,
spread gently over me,
and let me rest securely
through good and ill in thee.
oh, be my strength and portion,
my rock and hiding place,
and let my ev'ry moment
be lived within thy grace.
oh, wash me in the waters
lf noah's cleansing flood,
give me a willing spirit,
a heart, both clean and good.
and take into thy keeping
thy children great and small.
and while we sweetly slumber,
enfold us one and all.
