Watchest where Thy people be.

Though the arrow past us fly,
Angel guards from Thee surround us,
We are safe if Thou art nigh.

Should swift death this night o ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb,
May the morn of glory wake us,
Clad in light and deathless bloom.

May the morn of glory wake us,
Clad in light and deathless bloom.
