Healey Willan: Before the ending of the day

Before the ending of the day, creator of the world, we pray that with thy wonted favour thou wouldst be our guard and keeper now. From all ill dreams defend our eyes, from nightly fears and fantasies; tread under foot our ghostly foe, that no polution we may know. O Father, that we ask be done, through Jesus Christ thine only Son, who, with the Holy Ghost and thee, doth live and reign eternally. Amen. (Latin hymn trans. Neale)
