Jesu, the world’s re­deem­ing Lord,
The Fa­ther’s co-eter­nal Word,
Of light in­vi­si­ble true light,
Thine Is­ra­el’s keep­er day and night.

Our great cre­at­or and our guide,
Who times and sea­sons dost di­vide,
Refresh at night with qui­et rest,
Our limbs by dai­ly toil op­pressed.

That while in this frail house of clay
A lit­tle long­er here we stay,
Our flesh in Thee may sweet­ly sleep,
Our souls with Thee their vi­gils keep.

We pray Thee, while we dwell be­low,
Preserve us from our ghost­ly foe;
Nor let his wiles vic­to­ri­ous be
O’er them that are re­deemed by Thee.

O Lord of all, with us abide
In this our joy­ful East­er­tide;
From ev­ery wea­pon death can wield
Thine own re­deemed for­ev­er shield.

All praise be Thine, O ris­en Lord,
From death to end­less life re­stored;
All praise to God the Fa­ther be,
And Ho­ly Ghost eter­nal­ly.
