Cover us, O' Lord, by day and night
take away danger and those unjust;
keep us safe, from Evil's fright
be with us, in Thee we trust.
Cover us, O' Lord, each time we drive
take away errors, of driver's plight;
erase all faults, do not deprive
grant us safety, thy blessings ignite.
Cover us, O' Lord, from night till dawn
keep us fixed upon Thy Cross;
to kneel before Thee, ne'er to mourn
in Thee we pray, in God we trust.
Cover us, O' Lord, from Evil's way
depart from us the Error's plight;
the wicked aghast within this day
deliver us thus from Satan's sight.
Cover us, O' Lord, till the End of days
we cannot cope all on our own;
lest we stumble, in darkness' fray
to Thee we belong, ne'er forlorn.
Cover us, O' Lord, we humbly pray
answer our prayers by night and day;
close to Thee we shall thence stay
never too far, never to blaze.
Cover us, O' Lord, we need Thy help
our faith is lack, our lips are dry;
our tears are wasted in winter's melt
O' comfort us Lord, far from the mire.
Cover us, O' Lord, as we work and play
take away evil by night and day;
indeed we pray, Thy blessings to stay
allow us not to be in harm's way.
Cover us, O' Lord, till Thy Kingdom come
we are but flesh, we are too frail;
indeed we praise, Thy songs we hum
until the End, we shall not fail.
Amen!
