Verse 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) The philosophers tell us to live one (C major) day at a (G major) time and to live (D major) it well,
(C major) for tomorrow's (D major) strength
will come tomorrow.
(G major) But there's one line I remember
reading that seems (D major) to say it even
better.
Let us live so each night we
(G major) can say this prayer. (D major)
(C major) Dear
God, treat me (D major) tomorrow as I
have treated my fellow man today.
(G major) Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep

(D major) Asleep in (G major) Jesus, oh how
Verse 6
(D major)
sweet to be
for such a slumber (G major) meet,
with holy confidence to (C major) sing,
that death has (D major) lost his venom sting. (G major)

whose waking is supremely
(G major) No fear, no woe shall dim that
(C major) hour that manifest (G major) s the

Asleep (D major) in
(G major) Jesus,

may such a blissful refuge (G major) be.
Securely shall my ashes (C major) lie,
Waiting the (D major) summons from on (G major) high.
Securely shall my ashes (C major) lie,
Waiting the (D major) summons from on high. (G major)
