Hymn 31
Sun of my soul
Verse 1
Sun of my soul, O Saviour dear!
It is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born arise
To hide thee from thy servants eyes
It is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born arise
To hide thee from thy servants eyes
Verse 2
When soft the dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought-how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior’s breast!
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought-how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior’s breast!
Verse 3
Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without thee I dare not die.
For without thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without thee I dare not die.
Verse 4
Be near and bless me when I wake,
Ere thro` the world my way I take;
Till in the ocean of thy love
I lose myself in heaven above.
Ere thro` the world my way I take;
Till in the ocean of thy love
I lose myself in heaven above.
