Night Has Closed The Gates
Author: James Baden Powell Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Night has closed the gates,
Fades away the twilight,
While all nature waits,
Watching for the morn,
When the Christ was born,
Christ the Star of daylight.
2 Olden prophets spake
Many a word of warning;
"From your slumbers wake!
Lo! the heav’ns are riv’n,
For sure a Son is giv’n!"
Given with the dawning.
3 Psalmists sang their song,
Song of loving kindness,
Of the promise long,
Sure, with mercy dight,
Sure in giving light;
Light unto man’s blindness.
4 Christ, the Light has come,
Christ, true mercy bringing,
Earth is Heaven’s home,
Earth, where angels’ cry,
"Praise to God on high,"
Through the night is ringing.
5 Jesu, Mary’s Son!
Born for every nation,
By the grace Thou’st won,
Shed from Heaven’s height,
Mercy, truth and light,
In the end, salvation. Used With Tune: [Night has closed the gates] Text Sources: Carols Old and Carols New, by Charles L. Hutchins (Boston: Parish Choir, 1916)

Grand Rapids, MI, 1990) While attending Dutch church services as a child, Post was first introduced to the Genevan psalms, which influenced her later writings. She attended Calvin College, Grand Rapids, Michigan, where she studied with Henry Zylstra. From 1940 to 1942 she taught at the Muskegon Christian Junior High School. For over thirty years Post wrote poetry for the Grand Rapids Press and various church periodicals. She gave many readings of her poetry in churches and schools and has been published in a number of journals and poetry anthologies. Two important collections of her poems are I Never Visited an Artist Before (1977) and the posthumous Sandals, Sails, and Saints (1993). A member of the 1987 Psalter Hymnal Revision Committee, Post was a significant contributor to its array of original texts and paraphrases.
