321. SUN OF MY SOUL

Church Hymnal 1941,

Major Key: F

1.
Sun of my soul, O Savior dear!
It is not night if Thou be near;
O may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes.

2.
When soft the dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior's breast!

3.
Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh, 
For without Thee I dare not die.

4.
Be near and bless me when I wake,
Ere through the world my way I take;
Till in the ocean of Thy love
I lose myself in heaven above.
