Through the Day Thy Love hath Spared Us - Kelly - #553
Thomas Kelly wrote -
Look Ye Saints, the Sight Is Glorious.
Stricken, Smitten and Afflicted.
We Sing the Praise of Him Who Died.
Who Is This Who Comes From Edom.
The Head That Once Was Crowned with Thorns.
Hark! Ten Thousand Harps.
Look, Ye Saints, the Sight Is Glorious.
Zion Stands by Hills Surrounded.
"Through the Day Thy Love hath Spared Us"
by Thomas Kelly, 1769-1854
1. Through the day Thy love hath spared us,
Now we lay us down to rest;
Through the silent watches guard us,
Let no foe our peace molest.
Jesus, Thou our Guardian be;
Sweet it is to trust in Thee.
2. Pilgrims here on earth and strangers,
Dwelling in the midst of foes,
Us and ours preserve from dangers;
In Thine arms may we repose
And, when life's sad day is past,
Rest with Thee in heaven at last.
