Through this vain world He guides our feet,
And leads us to His Heav'nly seat;
Wonders of grace to God belong;
Repeat His mercies in your song.

HYMN 33.

Glory to Thee, my God, this night,
For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, o keep me, King of Kings,
Beneath Thine own Almighty wings.

Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
The ill that I this day have done;
That with the world, myself, and Thee,
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.

Teach me to live, that I may dread
The grave as little as my bed;
Teach me to die, that so I may
Rise glorious at the awful day.

O let my soul on Thee repose;
And may sweet sleep my eyelids close;
Sleep, that shall me more vig'rous make,
To serve my God when I awake.

HYMN 34.

Glory be to God on high,
God, whose glory fills the sky.
Peace on earth, and man forgiv'n,
Man the well-beloved of Heaven.
Hail, by all Thy works ador'd!
Hail, the everlasting Lord!
All Thy glories we confess,
Infinite and numberless.
