"Deliver us from evil"

Author: George Rawson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #25 (1890) Topics: Opening of Service; Opening of Service First Line: Father, in high heaven dwelling Lyrics: 1 Father, in high heaven dwelling, May our evening song be telling Of thy mercy large and free; Through the day thy love hath fed us, Through the day thy care hath led us, With divinest charity. 2 This day's sins, oh, pardon, Saviour! Evil thoughts, perverse behavior, Envy, pride, and vanity; From all evil us deliver; Save us now, and save us ever, O thou Lamb of Calvary! 3 Whilst the night-dews are distilling, Holy Ghost, each heart be filling With thine own serenity; Softly let our eyes be closing, Loving souls on thee reposing, Ever-blessed Trinity.

Evening Song

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Laudes Domini #26 (1890) Topics: Opening of Service; Opening of Service First Line: Upward where the stars are burning Lyrics: 1 Upward where the stars are burning, Silent, silent in their turning, Round the never changing pole; Upward where the sky is brightest, Upward where the blue is lightest, Lift I now my longing soul. 2 Far beyond the arch of gladness, Far beyond these clouds of sadness, Are the many mansions fair: Far from pain and sin and folly, In that palace of the holy I would find my mansion there. 3 Where the Lamb on high is seated, By ten thousand voices greeted: Lord of lords, and King of kings! Son of man, they crown, they crown him, Son of God, they own, they own him, With his name the palace rings. 4 Blessing, honor, without measure, Heavenly riches, earthly treasure, Lay we at his blessed feet: Poor the praise that now we render, Lord shall be our voices yonder, When before his throne we meet.

Prayer has power
