Praise thou my soul, the Lord on high

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCLIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 Praise thou my soul, the Lord on high, For daily strength and new supply; For keeping me this day from ill, For sending me his blessings still. 2 Forgive what I this day have done, Cause me my follies to bemoan; Defend me with thy mighty arm, And keep me all this night from harm. 3 Let me with sweet and calm repose, Now lying down my eye-lids close; Let me awake to praise thy name, And always sing thy glorious fame. 4 O keep my soul from dread and fear, No pow'rs of darkness enter here; But cause thy light of grace to shine Into this dark'ned heart of mine.

This day is spent, the night is come

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCXLIX (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 This day is spent, the night is come, And I am nearer to my home: That home which will for evermore, Remain when this my home is o'er. 2 O has it been my wish and care, For that long home still to prepare; Has not my precious time run waste, Just as the day that now is past. 3 Now when I lay these things to heart, And view myself in ev'ry part; When I research myself and see, What guilt may then be charg'd on me. 4 Hadst thou not spared me through grace, O what would be my present case! My soul would with this day have fled, Into the regions of the dead. 5 O may it be thy gracious will, To keep me in they favour still; Grant me this night to rest in peace, Secur'd in Christ, my righteousness. 6 To thee, O gracious Lord I pray, Let all my sins be done away! I plead the merits of thy Son, For all the evils I have done. 7 And should I die before I 'wake, Unto thyself my spirit take: My body in the grave to rest, Until I rise with all thy bless'd.

Being the fear of God all the day long

Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXXVI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Evening hymns First Line: Thrice happy souls, who born from heaven Lyrics: 1 Thrice happy souls, who born from heaven, Whilst yet they sojourn here, Humbly begin their days with God, And spend them in his fear! 2 So may our eyes with holy zeal Prevent the dawning day; And turn the sacred pages o’er, And praise thy name and pray! 3 Midst hourly cares may love present Its incense to thy throne; And, while the world our hands employs, Our hearts be thine alone! 4. As sanctified to noblest ends, Be each refreshment sought; And by each various providence, Some wise instruction brought! 5 When to laborious duties call'd Or by temptations try'd, We'll seek the shelter of thy wings, And in thy strength confide. 6 As different scenes of life arise, Our grateful hearts would be With thee, amidst the social band, In solitude with thee. 7 At night we lean our weary heads On thy paternal breast; And, safely folded in thine arms, Resign our powers to rest. 8 In solid pure delights, like these, Let all my days be past; Nor shall I then impatient wish, Nor shall I fear the last. Scripture: Proverbs 23:17 Languages: English

To thee, great Lord, my heav'nly King

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCLIV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 To thee, great Lord, my heav'nly King, My pray'r and praise shall be, My soul shall of thy mercies sing, Which thou hast shown to me. 2 From all the dangers of this day, Thou Lord hast kept me free; Thou art my only trust and stay, And thankful I should be. 3 Now Lord this day is past and gone, And darkness covers me; Now I should think on what I've done, And what my case may be. 4 Have I to thee obedient been, To serve thee all this day? Have I this day avoided sin, Have I not gone astray? 5 Could I but know how vile I am, And my transgressions see, My mercies, Lord, I durst not claim, Nor lift mine eyes to thee. 6 How oft in thought, and word and deed Have I offended thee; Yet I my Saviour's merits please, Which have aton'd for me. 7 Therefore, O Lord! I pray to thee, Forgive what I have done, My gracious Lord will pardon me, For Jesus' sake alone. 8 And now I lay me down to sleep, To take my needful rest; I pray the Lord, my life to keep, As he may think it best.

Unto the Lord, my gracious God

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCLII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 Unto the Lord, my gracious God, I offer humble praise; Whose mercies are to me renew'd' Which I enjoy always. 2 How great his love to me has been, Beyond the reach of mind; Though I have spent this day in sin, His mercies still I find. 3 This day is gone, and spent and past, And will return no more: Thus to eternity I haste, With ev'ry fleeting hour. 4 With ev'ry closing of the day, And setting of the sun. My precious moments fly away, And choicest minutes run. 5 Could I but know how vile I am, And feel my wretched state: My soul would fill with fear and shame, With sorrow and regret. 6 O wretched in my state indeed, I must confess and own; And what can I poor sinner plead? In all that I have done. 7 For Jesus' sake my sins forgive! Cause me in peace to sleep; In thy protection me receive, And safely there to keep. Languages: English

Lo! God is here! let us adore

Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791; G. Tersteegen, 1697-1769 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #15 (1917) Topics: Evening Hymns Lyrics: 1. Lo! God is here! let us adore, And own how dreadful in this place! Let all within us feel His power, And silent bow before His face; Who know His power, His grace who prove, Serve Him with awe, with reverence love. 2. Lo! God is here! Him day and night United choirs of angels sing; To Him, enthroned above all height, Heaven's host their noblest praises bring; Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song, Who praise Thee with a stammering tongue. 3. Gladly the toys of earth we leave, Wealth, pleasure, fame, for Thee alone; To Thee our will, soul, flesh, we give; O take, O seal them for Thine own! For Thou art God, Thou at the Lord; Be Thou by all Thy works adored. 4. Being of beings! may our praise Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill; Still may we stand before Thy face, Still hear and do Thy sovereign will; To Thee may all our thoughts arise, Ceaseless, accepted sacrifice. 5. As flowers their opening leaves display, And glad drink in the solar fire, So may we catch Thy every ray, So may Thy influence us inspire; Thou Beam of the eternal Beam, Thou purging Fire, Thou quickening Flame.
