Lyrics
When the dreary day is over
And the twilight fades away
With your head upon your pillow
Do you ever think to pray?
Sunrise, high noon and sunset
And over the blue horizon the moon begins to creep
Another day has faded away and now it's time to sleep
So with my head on my pillow at the close of a dreary day
I must always ask his blessings
I would not forget to pray
To thank him for life, for health, for friends and loved ones
And the family near and dear
For the joys and pleasures that are mine to have
As I travel down here
And as the long dark night will brighten
With the dawn of tomorrow's light
May our troubles be few and our burdens light
So with my head on my pillow
As the evening turns to night
Our all to him, our thanks to you
And a pleasant good night
He will mercy show
All to him you owe
Do you ever think to pray?
