1. All praise to thee who safe hast kept,
   And hast refreshed me while I slept!
   Grant, Lord, when I from death awake,
   I may of endless life partake.

2. Lord, I my vows to thee renew;
   Disperse my sins as morning dew;
   Guard my first springs of thought and will,
   And with thy self my spirit fill.

3. Direct, control, suggest this day,
   All I design, or do, or say,
   That all my powers, with all their might,
   In thy sole glory may unite.

4. Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
   Praise him, all creatures here below;
   Praise him above, ye heavenly host;
   Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
