The day you gave us, Lord, has ended

Author: John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #220 (2008) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in the morning and evening Lyrics: 1 The day you gave us, Lord, has ended; the darkness falls at your behest; to you our morning hymns ascended, your praise shall sanctify our rest. 2 We thank you that your Church unsleeping, while earth rolls onwards into light, through all the world her watch is keeping, nor rests from worship day or night. 3 As o'er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day, the voice of prayer is never silent, nor dies the song of praise away. 4 The sun that bids us rest is waking your children 'neath the western sky, and hour by hour fresh lips are making your wondrous deeds resound on high. 5 So be it, Lord! your throne shall never, like earths proud empires, pass away; your kingdom stands and grows for ever, till all your creatures own your sway. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 23:30 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CLEMENT

Broad and deep and glorious, as the heaven above, shines in might victorious his eternal love. 3 Lord, upon our blindness your pure radiance pour; for your loving-kindness make us love you more. And, when clouds are drifting dark across the sky, then, the veil uplifting, Father, still be nigh. 4 We will never doubt you, though you veil your light; life is dark without you; death with you is bright. Light of light, shine o'er us on our pilgrim way; still go on before us, to the endless day. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:23 Languages: English Tune Title: RUTH
