All through the night

Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee all through the night

Guardian angels God will send thee all through the night
Soft and drowsy hours are creeping, hill and dale in slumber sleeping I, my loving vigil keeping all through the night.

While the moon her watch is keeping, all through the night
While the weary world is sleeping, all through the night
O’er thy spirit gently stealing visions of delight revealing
Breathes a pure and holy feeling all through the night
