Lyrics:
Peaceful woods, the dusk descending,
Fragrant now with Summer's ending;
There I rested, and e'er sleeping,
Praying, sought His sweet safe-keeping.
Thus I lay there, silent, praying;
"Lord, I wander ever straying;
I wander through the world, yet knowing.
Thou wilt guard me, and my going,
Let not darkness from Thee hide me,
May Thine angels watch beside me.
Guard us all while we are sleeping,
Safe forever in Thy keeping.
Ever, ever in Thy keeping.”
