And now another Day is gone

Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #174 (1732) Lyrics: I. And now another Day is gone; The Sun has left the shore; All seek for Rest, whose Work is done, And leave the lab'ring Oar. II. But thou, my God, want'st no such Rest; Thy Glory knows no Night; With Thee thy Darkness can't contest, For Thou thy self art Light. III. In Mercy, Lord, remember me, This instant passing Night; And grant to me most graciously The Safeguard of thy Might. IV. Destroy old Satan's Tyranny, By th' Holy Angel's Host; So shall I be from Danger free; And Sorrow will be lost. V. And though I feel the Lord of Sin, Which still oppresses me, Yet th' Anguish thy dear son was in, Has greater Weight with Thee. VI. 'Tis he alone that pleads for me; His Merits hide my Drime: A Reprobate I ne'er can be While I've a Share in him. VII. With chearful Heart I close my Eyes, Since thou'lt not from me move. O, in the Morning let me rise Rejoicing in thy Love. VIII. Away from me, ye vain Desires: A new Design I start; A Temple in me God requires; And it shall be my Heart. IX. O, if this Night shall prove my last, And end my transient Days, Convey me to thy promis'd Rest, Where I may sing thy Praise. X. Thus I desire to live and dye To Thee the God of Love; In Life and Death I do rely On Thee who reign'st above. Topics: Evening Hymn Languages: English Tune Title: [And now another Day is gone]
