All praise to thee, my God, this night

for all the blessings of the light.

     Am  D   G        Am   D  G

beneath thine own almighty wings!

Forgive  me, Lord, for thy dear Son,

    Am7 D7   G      C   D7   G 
the ill that I this day have done,

     Am   D   G        Am   D   G 
that with the world, myself and thee,

I, ere I  sleep, at peace may be.

the grave as little as my bed,

to die, that this vile body may

rise glorious at the awful day.

forev--er chase dark sleep a-way,

    Am    D G         Am D   G 
and hymns divine with angels sing

   Am D7   Em     G   Am   D  G 
in endless praise to thee, my King?

Praise God,  from whom all blessings flow;

       Am7  D7  G         C    D7 G 
praise him, all creatures here below;

       Am   D G       Am    D  G 
praise him, above, ye heav’nly host;

       Am D7   Em   G   Am D G 
praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
