God, That Madest Earth and Heaven

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826; Frederick L. Hosmer, 1840-1929; Richard Whateley, 1787-1863 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #147 (1957) Topics: Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven, Darkness and light; Who the day for toil hast given, For rest the night; May Thine angel guards defend us, Slumber sweet Thy mercy send us; Holy dreams and hopes attend us, This livelong night. 2 When the constant sun returning Unseals our eyes, May we, born anew like morning, To labor rise; Gird us for the task that calls us, Let not ease and self enthrall us, Strong through Thee whate'er befall us, O God most wise! 3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping, And when we die, May we in thy mighty keeping, All peaceful lie; When the last dread trump shall wake us, Do not Thou, O God, forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With Thee on high. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS

Abide with me

Author: Henry F. Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #148 (1957) Topics: Worship and Praise Evening Hymns First Line: Abide with me: fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 5 Hold Thou the cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

Saviour, Again to Thy Dear Name

Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #153 (1957) Topics: Evening hymns First Line: Saviour, again to Thy dear name we raise Lyrics: 1 Saviour, again to Thy dear name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease; Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace. 2 Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way; With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day: Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon Thy name. 3 Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night, Turn Thou for us its darkness into light; From harm and danger keep Thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to Thee. 4 Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life, Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife; Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ELLERS
