Evening Prayer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If i have wounded any soul today,
If i have caused one foot to go astray,
If i have walked in my own will full way -
Good lord, forgive!
If i have uttered idle words or vain,
If i have turned aside from want or pain,
Lest i myself should suffer through the strain -
Good lord, forgive!
If i have craved for joys that are not mine,
If i have let my wayward heart repine,
Dwelling on things of earth, not things divine -
Good lord, forgive!
If i have been perverse, or hard, or cold,
If i have longed for shelter in thy fold,
When thou has given me some part to hold -
Good lord, forgive.
Now i lay me down to sleep,
I pray the lord my soul to keep;
Guard me safe through the night,
And wake me with the morning light.
Blessed are you, hashem,
Our god, king of the universe,
Who casts the bonds of sleep upon my eyes
And slumber upon my eyelids.
May it be your will, hashem, my god
And the god of my forefathers,
That you lay me down to sleep in peace
And rise me erect in peace.
May my ideas, bad dreams,
And bad notions not confound me;
May my offspring be perfect before you,
And may you illuminate my eyes lest i die in sleep,
Who illuminates the pupil of the eye.
Blessed are you, hashem,
Who illuminates the entire world
With his glory
