All through the night

While the moon her watch is keeping
All through the night
While the weary world is sleeping
All through the night
O'er thy spirit gently stealing
Visions of delight revealing
Breathes a pure and holy feeling
All through the night

Though I roam a minstrel lonely
All through the night
My true harp shall praise sing only
All through the night
Love's young dream, alas, is over
Yet my strains of love shall hover
Near the presence of my lover
All through the night

Hark, a solemn bell is ringing
Clear through the night
Thou, my love, art heavenward winging
Home through the night
Earthly dust from off thee shaken
Soul immortal shalt thou awaken
With thy last dim journey taken
Home through the night

ALTERNATE VERSION OF LYRICS:
Sleep, my babe, no ill betide thee,
All through the night.
Guardian angels watch beside thee
All through the night.
      O'er thy cradle stars are beaming,
      Silver bright the moon is gleaming;
      Thou shalt tread the land of dreaming.
      All through the night.

While the earth in calm reposes,
All through the night.
Thou shalt sleep as sleep the roses,
All through the night.
     Hushed from sorrow and repining,
     Rest until the sun is shining,
     In my loving arms reclining,
     All through the night.
