Lord, support us all day

Along life\'s troublous way

\'Til this earthly life past

And evening shadows cast

 

\'Til busy world is hushed

Your words not faint or crushed

When fever of life o\'er

We reach the distant shore

 

Here work be done daily

There it be over, see

Then Lord in your mercy

Grant us lodging safely

 

A holy rest and peace

All sin and sorrow cease

At the last time you call

To our long home us all
