Now the light has gone away

Let me love Thee more and more, Always better than before. Amen. Used With Tune: GERMAN EVENING HYMN

How Calmly the Evening

Author: Thomas T. Lynch, 1818-71 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening First Line: How calmly the evening once more is descending Lyrics: 1 How calmly the evening once more is descending, As kind as a promise, as still as a pray'r; O wing of the Lord, in Thy shelter befriending, May we and our households continue to share. 2 The sky, like the kingdom of heaven, is open; O enter, my soul, at the glorious gates; The silence and smile of His love are the token, Who now for all comers invitingly waits. 3 We come to be soothed with His merciful healing, The dews of the night cure the wounds of the day; We come, our life's worth and its brevity feeling, With thanks for the past, for the future we pray. 4 Lord, save us from folly; be with us in sorrow; Sustain us in work till the time of our rest; When earth's day is over, may heaven's tomorrow Dawn on us, of homes long expected possessed. Used With Tune: WHITCHURCH
