Evensong is hushed in silence

Author: J. Purchas, abb. Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: General Processionals Lyrics: 1 Evensong is hushed in silence, And the hour of rest is nigh: Strengthen us for work tomorrow, Son of Mary, God most high. Thou who in the village workshop, Fashioning the yoke and plough, Didst eat bread by daily labour, Succour them that labour now. 2 How are we to reach the city, Whose delights no tongue may tell? By the faith that looks to Jesus, By a life of doing well: Sinful men and sinful women, He will wash our sins away; He will take us to the Sheepfold, Whence no sheep can ever stray. 3 There the dear ones who have left us We shall some day meet again; There will be no bitter partings, No more sorrow, death or pain. Evensong has closed in silence, And the hour of rest is nigh: Lighten Thou our darkness, Jesus, Son of Mary, God most high. Used With Tune: EVENSONG

The Bridegroom Soon Will Call Us

May slumbers not enthrall us When we His voice shall hear; May all our lamps be burning And oil be found in store, That we, with Him returning, May find an open door. 2 There shall we see delighted Our blest Redeemer's face, Who leads our souls benighted To glory by His grace; The patriarchs shall meet us, The prophets we shall stand; Apostles, martyrs, greet us In that celestial land. 3 They will not blush to own us As brothers, sisters dear; Love ever will be shown us When we with them appear; We all shall come before Him Who for us flesh became; As Lord and God adore Him And bless His holy name. 4 Our Father, rich in blessing, Will give us crowns of gold; And to His bosom pressing, Will grant us bliss untold; He welcomes with embraces His own in boundless love And decks us with His graces In blissful realms above. 5 In that fair home shall never Be hushed the singers' voice; With hearts and lips forever Shall we in God rejoice; The angels shall adore Him, All saints shall voice His praise And bring with joy before Him Their sweetest heavenly lays. 6 In mansions fair and spacious Will God the feast prepare And, ever kind and gracious, Bid us His riches share; There bliss that knows no measure From springs of love shall flow, And never-changing pleasure His bounty will bestow. Amen. Used With Tune: EVARTS
