The Day You Gave Us, God, Is Ended

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #95 (1995) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Rest First Line: The day you gave us, God is ended Lyrics: 1 The day you gave us, Lord, is ended, the light now fades at your request; To you our morning hymns ascended, your praise shall sanctify our rest. 2 We thank you that your Church, unsleeping, while earth rolls onward into light, Through all the world its watch is keeping, and rests not now by 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 strain of praise away. 4 The sun that bids us rest is waking our family members far away, Who, while we sleep, are gladly taking their turn to worship you and pray. 5 So be it, God. Your reign shall never, like earth's proud empires, fade and fall. Your reign endures, and grows forever till all your creatures heed your call. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CLEMENT

Once More the Shadows Lengthen

Author: Margaret Clarkson Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #571 (1995) Meter: 7.4.7.4 D Topics: Rest Lyrics: 1 Once more the shadows lengthen, the daylight dies; again to you, O Father, our praises rise. This day your hand has led us, your presence blessed; and now, as darkness deepens, in you we rest. 2 We marvel at the mercy, the sov'reign grace, that give to guilty sinners such resting place! You bid us come as children in Christ made new - great God of our salvation, we worship you! 3 We trust your loving-kindness, your mighty pow'r, to hold our hearts in quiet in danger's hour. You make our griefs and burdens your constant care: we lay them on your promise and leave them there. 4 Go with us as we journey our sev'ral ways, and draw our spirits heav'nward in ceaseless praise: we find in you our answer to ev'ry quest, our Strength, our Song, our Stillness, our endless Rest!
