work in progress, trying to write lyrics to "suo ghan" melody

To my savior my sins surrender.

Calm and perfect is thy rest.

With thy love and power surrounding,

I crush my tempter through thy holiness.

Let no thoughts this night upset me,

yes, through thy name I have no fear.

As my soul slips slowy to slumber, I can feel thy presence near.

(still working on more verses and cadence)

o.k. the line I referred to in the other comment was 'berate or upset me'

sorry I got it wrong the first comment...anyway it seemed to fit the music better with one or the other of the words.

let me know back...that is the only thing I would refine in this beautiful hymn
