Charles Dickens - A Child`s Hymn
Work rating: Medium

Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father,
            Ere I lay me down to sleep;
            Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
            Round my bed their vigil keep.
             
            My sins are heavy, but Thy mercy
            Far outweighs them, every one;
            Down before Thy cross I cast them,
            Trusting in Thy help alone.
             
            Keep me through this night of peril
            Underneath its boundless shade;
            Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
            When my pilgrimage is made.
             
            None shall measure out Thy patience
            By the span of human thought;
            None shall bound the tender mercies
            Which Thy Holy Son has bought.
             
            Pardon all my past transgressions,
            Give me strength for days to come;
            Guide and guard me with Thy blessing
            Till Thy angels bid me home.
