Author: Mary A. Lathbury Hymnal: Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) #119 (1997) Lyrics: 1 Day is dying in the west;
Heav'n is touching earth with rest;
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight
Thro' all the sky.
Refrain:
Holy, Holy, Holy,
Lord God of Hosts!
Heav'n and earth are full of Thee;
Heav'n and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high!
2 Lord of life, beneath the dome
Of the universe, Thy home,
Gather us who seek Thy face
To the fold of Thy embrace
For Thou art nigh. [Refrain]
3 While the deep'ning shadows fall,
Heart of love, enfolding all,
Thro' the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend. [Refrain]
4 When for ever from our sight
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,
And shadows end. [Refrain] Topics: God Holiness; Praise God, The Father Scripture: Isaiah 6:3 Languages: English Tune Title: [Day is dying in the west]
