All Through the Night by Peter C. Lutkin — Lyrics

Sleep my child and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will send thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and vale in slumber sleeping, Love alone his watch is keeping All through the night. While the moon her watch is keeping All through the night While the weary world is sleeping All through the night O'er thy spirit gently stealing visions of delight revealing; Breathes a pure and holy feeling All through the night. Hark! a solemn bell is ringing Clear through the night; Thou, my love, art heav’nward winging, Home through the night. Earthly dust from off thee shaken Soul immortal, thou shalt waken With thy last dim journey taken, Home through the night.
