O Lord, support us all day
And e\'en through each night we pray
All through this troublous life here
Hold us to you dear
Until shades do lengthen out
Evening comes without a doubt
And the busy world hushed is
Give us rest, true bliss
And when fever of life o\'er
Our work done here then for sure
Then Lord in your mercy give
Good things, that we live
Grant us safe lodging, abode
A holy rest, your love showed
Unto us, and peace at last
When earth\'s troubles past
