darkness and light;
who the day for toil hast given,
for rest the night;

slumber sweet thy mercy send us,
holy dreams and hopes attend us,
this livelong night.
2 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
and, when we die,
may we in thy mighty keeping
all peaceful lie:

do not thou our God forsake us,
but to reign in glory take us
with thee on high. Topics: Evening Languages: English Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS

Hymnal: CPAM2000 #471 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Genesis 1:1 Lyrics: 1 I to the hills will lift mine eyes;
from whence doth come mine aid?
My safety cometh from the Lord,
who heaven and earth hath made.

he slumber that thee keeps;
behold, he that keeps Israel,
he slumbers not, nor sleeps.

on thy right hand doth stay:
the moon by night thee shall not smite,
nor yet the sun by day.
4 The Lord shall keep thy soul; he shall
preserve thee from all ill;
henceforth thy going out and in
God keep for ever will. Topics: Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Languages: English Tune Title: ST MARY

Her Virgin eyes saw God incarnate born
Author: Thomas Ken Hymnal: CPAM2000 #239 (2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Scripture: Genesis 3:16 Lyrics: 1 Her Virgin eyes saw God incarnate born,
when she to Bethlem came that happy morn:
how high her raptures then began to swell,

wept for herself and all she should include,
blest Mary, with man's Saviour in embrace,
joyed for herself and for all human race.
3 All saints are by her Son's dear influence blest;
she kept the very fountain at her breast:
the Son adored and nursed by the sweet Maid
a thousandfold of love for love repaid.
4 Heaven with transcendent joys her entrance graced,
near to his throne her Son his Mother placed;
and here below, now she's of heaven possest,
all generations are to call her blest. Topics: Blessed Virgin Mary Languages: English Tune Title: FARLEY CASTLE

see sin, but through my tears. Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 46

and worship only thee.

calm and serene my frame;
so purer light shall mark the road
that leads me to the Lamb. Topics: Lent I Year B; Lent Languages: English Tune Title: CAITHNESS

cheers the long watches of the night.

we ask no lustre of our own.

till all thy living altars claim
one holy light, one heavenly flame. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE

I lay in dust life's glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Topics: Proper 5 Year C; Proper 14 Year B; Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Languages: English Tune Title: ST MARGARET

It came upon the midnight clear
Author: Edmund H. Sears, 1810-1876 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #56 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Genesis 11:9 Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old,
from angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold:
'Peace on the earth, good will to men,
from heaven's all-gracious King!'
the world in solemn stillness lay,
to hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
with peaceful wings unfurled;
and still their heavenly music floats
o'er all the weary world:
above its sad and lowly plains
they bend on hovering wing;
and ever o'er its Babel-sounds
the blessèd angels sing.
3 Yet with the woes of sin and strife
the world has suffered long;
beneath the angel strain have roled
two thousand years of wrong;
and man, at war with man, hears not
the love-song which they bring:
O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
and hear the angels sing.
*4 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,
whose forms are bending low,
who toil along the climbing way
with painful steps and slow,
look now! for glad and golden hours
come swiftly on the wing;
O rest beside the weary road,
and hear the angels sing!
5 For lo, the days are hastening on,
by prophet-bards foretold,
when, with the ever-circling years,
comes round the age of gold;
when peace shall over all the earth
its ancient splendours fling,
and the whole world give back the song
which now the angels sing. Topics: Christmas; St. Michael and All Angels; Chirstimas Midnight Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
