Verse 3: (chords as V2)
And in the evening, as my thoughts retell
this passing day let me remember well;
so that no bitterness takes root within my soul;
help me to let them go.
Verse 4: (chords as V2)
And in the night-time may my mind be free
to truly rest and be refreshed in sleep;
and by releasing every worry, every strain,
be free to start again.
