Lyrics
When shining stars their vigils keep,
And all the world is hushed in sleep,
'Tis then I breathe this pray’r so deep
God bless my boy tonight.
I know not where his head my lie,
Perchance beneath the open sky ;
But this I ween, God's watchful eye
Can see my boy tonight.
As pass the days, the months and years,
With all the change, the hopes and fears,
God make each step of duty clear,
And keep his honor bright.
And when at last his work is o'er,
And earthy toil shall be no more,
May angels guide him to the shore
Where there shall be no night.
Chorus:
God bless my boy, oh, bless my boy,
And keep his footsteps right;
God bless my boy, oh, bless my boy,
God save my boy tonight.
And all the world is hushed in sleep,
'Tis then I breathe this pray’r so deep
God bless my boy tonight.
I know not where his head my lie,
Perchance beneath the open sky ;
But this I ween, God's watchful eye
Can see my boy tonight.
As pass the days, the months and years,
With all the change, the hopes and fears,
God make each step of duty clear,
And keep his honor bright.
And when at last his work is o'er,
And earthy toil shall be no more,
May angels guide him to the shore
Where there shall be no night.
Chorus:
God bless my boy, oh, bless my boy,
And keep his footsteps right;
God bless my boy, oh, bless my boy,
God save my boy tonight.
