Overseer of My Soul

Oh, Overseer of my soul

Watch over me tonight

Guard my heart and still my mind

Secrets remain within your sight

Darkness must flee from your light

Oh, Overseer of my soul

Watch over me today

Like a watchman alert me

To this world’s wicked way

Watch over me I pray

Your eye roves all throughout the earth

For you know what a heart is worth

You seek a man whose heart is yours

To strongly uphold and assure

Oh rest your eye on me while life endures!

Oh Overseer of My soul

My sentry and defense

Oh watchman keep my heart secure

Until my journey ends
For the journey never ends

Oh Overseer of My soul

My end of days you see

Vouchsafe me as I run this race,

As I live the mystery
As I live the mystery
