Through another night

Through another night, be pleased to grant us Your guardian care.

Shepherd of Israel, may Your wakeful, sleepless eye be upon us.

May the shadows of this night's darkness be to us only as the shadow of Your wings.

Shield soul and body by Your mighty power. Lying down in Your fear, may we awake in Your favor, fitted for the duties of a new day.

All this we ask for the sake of Jesus Christ, our only Savior. Amen.
