O Father, keep me through this day;
In Him who washed my sins away.
And guide me through the morrow, Thou;
Watch o'er me then, as even now.
O lead me truly by that One,
The Spirit of Thine only Son.
Keep me within His love and grace;
The Christ, the lovely, fair of face.
My Father, may I e'er for Thee
Thy witness, intercessor be.
Within the center of Thy will
Keep me, O Father, restful, still.
And by the power of Thy hand,
O compass me, as Thou hast planned.
And keep me 'neath Thy shelt'ring wings;
Away from sinful, earthly things.
My Father, keep me now, alway;
For 'tis in Jesus' name I pray.
In Him who washed my sins away.
And guide me through the morrow, Thou;
Watch o'er me then, as even now.
O lead me truly by that One,
The Spirit of Thine only Son.
Keep me within His love and grace;
The Christ, the lovely, fair of face.
My Father, may I e'er for Thee
Thy witness, intercessor be.
Within the center of Thy will
Keep me, O Father, restful, still.
And by the power of Thy hand,
O compass me, as Thou hast planned.
And keep me 'neath Thy shelt'ring wings;
Away from sinful, earthly things.
My Father, keep me now, alway;
For 'tis in Jesus' name I pray.
