Thus far the Lord has led me on

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.LXXX (1766) Topics: Evening and Morning Hymns; Evening Hymn Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on, Thus far his Pow'r prolongs my Days, And ev'ry Ev'ning shall make known Some fresh Memorial of his Grace. 2 Much of my Time has run to waste, And I perhaps am near my Home; But he forgives my Follies past, He gives me Strength for Days to come. 3 I lay my Body down to Sleep, Peace is the Pillow for my Head; While well-appointed Angels keep Their watchful Stations round my Bed. 4 In vain the Sons of Earth or Hell, Tell me a thousand frightful Things, My God in Safety makes me dwell Beneath the Shadow of his Wings. [5 Faith in his Name forbids my Fear; O may thy Presence ne'er depart! And in the Morning make me hear The Love and Kindness of thy Heart. 6 Thus when the Night of Death shall come, My Flesh shall rest beneath the Ground, And wait thy Voice to rouse my Tomb, With sweet Salvation in the Sound.] Scripture: Psalm 4:8 Languages: English

Now the Day is Over

Author: Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #12 (1970) Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh; Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky. 2 Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose; With Thy tend'rest blessing May our eyelids close. 3 Grant to little children Visions bright of Thee; Guard the sailors tossing On the deep blue sea. 4 Thru the long night watches May Thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed. 5 When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure and fresh and sinless In Thy holy eyes.

Softly now the Light of Day

Author: Geo. W. Doane Hymnal: Concordia #246 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away; Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with Thee. 2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye Naught escapes, without, within, Pardon each infirmity, Open fault, and secret sin. 3 Soon, for me, the light of day Shall forever pass away; Then, from sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with Thee. 4 Thou who, sinless, yet hast known All of man's infirmity, Then, from Thine eternal throne, Jesus, look with pitying eye.

Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Concordia #247 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening First Line: Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear, It is not night if Thou be near: Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes! 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep, My weary eyelids gently steep, Be my last tho't--how sweet to rest Forever on my Savior's breast! 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, For without Thee I cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without Thee I dare not die. 4 Be near to bless me when I wake, Ere thro' the world my way I take; Abide with me till in Thy love I lose myself in heav'n above.
