Cat. #1512 (MFH #1003) - As sung by Sam Osterloh, Freistatt, Missouri on March 12, 1975
VERSE 1
Now, th light has gone away
Father listen while I pray
Asking thee to watch an' keep
An' to send me quietly
VERSE 2
Jesus, Saviour, wash away
All I have sinned on today
Help me every day to be
Good an' gentle, more like thee
VERSE 3
Now, my aching breath I give
Thou hast loved me to th end
All my blessing come from thee
O, how good thou art to me
VERSE 4
Thou, my best an' kindest friend
Thou dids't die that I might live
Let me love thee more an' more
Always better than before
