Cast me not away from your presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. Give me the joy of your saving help again and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.

O Lord, give thy Holy Spirit into our hearts, and lighten our understanding, that we may dwell in the fear of Thy name all the days of our life: that we may know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent.

No Spirit can come near? Nor evil beast to harm thee: Sleep, Sweet, devoid of fear Where nothing need alarm thee. the Love which doth not sleep, the eternal Arms surround thee: the Shepherd of the sheep In perfect love hath found thee. Sleep through the Holy night, Kept from snare and sorrow, Until thou wake to light And love and warmth to-morrow.  less
