With bending knee in humble prayer

Alone? All 20, I'm not alone,
Thy presence Lord is here;
Though dark aud silent all may be,
Ny soul can know no tear.
The day with all its toll, has gone,
Let wearied nature rest;
Bur, O, my Father, e'er sleep,
would by thee be blessed.
Now lights dark curtains drawn around,
All spangled by thy power:
Come with thy still small voice.
At this the midnight hour.

Within my troubled breast;
How calmly then, I'll fall asleep,
And sweet will be my rest. MAUD.
