Great God! to Thee my evening song
The happy sunshine all is gone
Author: Nicolaus Herman; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The happy sunshine all is gone,
The gloomy night comes swiftly on;
But shine Thou still, O Christ our Light,
That we walk not in error's night.
2 We thank Thee, Father, that this day
Thy angels watched around our way,
And free from harm and vexing fear
Thy grace has kept, and brought us here.
3 We own that we have angered Thee,
Do Thou forgive us graciously,
Unto our soul impute it not,
And bless with peaceful sleep our cot.
4 Thy angels guard our sleeping hours,
And keep afar all evil powers;
From terrors, fire, and every harm,
This night protect us by Thy arm. Topics: The Catechism Evening Used With Tune: TALLIS' EVENING HYMN
The happy sunshine all is gone
All praise to thee, Eternal Lord
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Anonymous, 1858 Appears in 112 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All praise to thee, Eternal Lord,
Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood;
Choosing a manger for thy throne,
While worlds on worlds are thine alone.
2 Once did the skies before thee bow,
A Virgin's arms contain thee now;
Angels, who did in thee rejoice,
Now listen for thine infant voice.
3 A little child, thou art our guest,
That weary ones in thee may rest;
Forlorn and lowly is thy birth,
That we may rise to heaven from earth.
4 Thou comest in the darksome night,
To make us children of the light,
To make us in the realms divine,
Like thine own angels, 'round thee shine.
5 All this for us thy love hath done,
By this to thee our love is won,
For this we tune our cheerful lays,
And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise. Topics: The Church Year Christmas Used With Tune: TALLIS' CANON Text Sources: Latin Hymn of XI cent. German Hymn of XIV cent.

Lord Jesus Christ, to thee we pray
Author: William M. Reynolds; Dr. M. Luther Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, Christ, to Thee we pray,
From us God's wrath Thou turn'st away,
Thine agony and bitter death
Redeem us from eternal wrath.
2 That we may never this forget
Thy body for our food is set;
And in the wine Thou giv'st Thy blood
To cleanse our souls, a sacred flood.
3 Let none, impenitent and bold,
This sacred feast profanely hold:
He who unworthy sitteth there
Shall sink to death and dark despair.
4 But praise the Father, by whose love
The Son descended from above,
Became the bread of life to thee,
And bore thy sins upon the tree.
5 Firmly on this thou must believe;
That here the sick their food receive,
Which heals them from the wounds of sin,
Creating heav'nly health within.
6 Such grace and mercy must be sought
By those whom sorrow long hath taught;
If anguish ne'er thy heart hath rent
Be not thy knee there vainly bent.
7 Our Saviour saith: Come unto Me,
Ye who now feel your poverty:
My mercy I will freely give,
Your anguished conscience I'll relieve.
8 Could'st thou unaided this obtain,
Then have I shed my blood in vain;
This feast was vainly spread for thee,
If thou require no food from me.
9 If in thy heart this faith doth rest,
Which thou hast here in words confessed,
A welcome guest thou here shalt be,
And Christ Himself shall banquet thee.
10 But fruits must still thy faith approve;
Thy neighbor thou must truly love;
That love let him from thee receive,
Which here to thee thy God doth give. Topics: The Catechism Holy Communion Used With Tune: TALLIS' EVENING HYMN
