Savior Breathe an Evening Blessing

 

                        Savior Breathe an Evening Blessing

Too often, we go to bed and our mind takes off like it never had thought before. Swirling, from one subject to another. We worry about things we have no control over and things that may or may not happen. We need a blessing from the Savior; we pray that it is so. The night becomes dark and dreary, but we must understand that God’s angels are watching over us. He can calm our thoughts and give us peace that passes all understanding. We just need to ask for it, and it is done. Let go, Let God. That is my mantra when I have trouble sleeping. And if I die before morning, then I will rejoice that I am in heaven worshiping God Almighty.

Lyrics by James Edmenton, Arranged by George C. Stebbins

“Savior, breathe an evening blessing ere repose our spirit’s seal; Sin and want we come confessing, Thou canst save and Thou canst heal.

Though destruction walk around us. Though the arrows past us fly; Angel guards from Thee surround us, we are safe if Thou are nigh.

Though the night be dark and dreary, darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou are He who, never weary, watchest where Thy people be.

Should swift death this night overtake us, and our couch become our tomb, may the morn in heaven awake us, clad in bright and deathless bloom.” Amen
