All's Well
A. Foote
The day is ended. Ere I sink to sleep
My weary spirit seeks repose in thine:
Father! forgive my trespasses, and keep
This little life of mine.
With loving kindness curtain thou my bed;
And cool in rest my burning pilgrim-feet,
Thy pardon be the pillow for my head;
So shall my sleep be sweet.
At peace with all the world, dear Lord, and Thee,
No fears my soul's unwavering faith can shake;
All's well, whichever side the grave for me
The morning light may break.
