Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go; Thy word into our minds instil; And make our lukewarm hearts to glow With lowly love and fervent will. Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
2. The day is done; its hours have run; And thou hast taken count of all The scanty triumphs grace has won, The broken vow, the frequent fall, Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
3. Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways True absolution and release; And bless us more than in past days, With purity and inward peace. Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
4. Do more than pardon; give us joy, Sweet fear and sober liberty. And loving hearts without alloy, That only long to be like thee. Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
5. Labour is sweet, for thou hast toiled, And care is light, for thou hast cared; Let not our works with self be soiled, Nor in unsimple ways ensnared. Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
6. For all we love-the poor, the sad, The sinful-unto thee we call; Oh let thy mercy make us glad; 45 Thou art our Jesus and our all. Through life’s long day and death’s dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our light.
