Have we found life so passing fair, So grand to be, so sweet that we Should dread to go? Should dread to go? O Father, us in safety keep! We lay us down to sleep. 4 Some other hand the task can take, If so it seemeth best, the task By us begun; No work for which we need to wake In joy or grief, for life so brief, Beneath the sun, Beneath the sun. O Father, us in safety keep! We lay us down to sleep. Languages: English Tune Title: [We lay us calmly down to sleep]
