Author: Anatolius; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #458b (1917) Lyrics: 1 The day is past and over;
All thanks, O Lord, to Thee!
I pray Thee that offenceless
The hours of dark may be.
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night!
2 The joys of day are over:
I lift my heart to Thee,
And call on Thee that sinless
The hours of gloom may be.
O Jesus, make their darkness light,
And guard me through the coming night!
3 The toils of day are over:
I lift my heart to Thee;
And ask that free from peril
The hours of gloom may be.
O Jesus, make their darkness light,
And guard me through the coming night!
4 Be Thou my soul’s Preserver,
O God, for Thou dost know
How many are the perils
Through which I have to go.
Lover of men, O hear my call,
And guard and save me from them all!
Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANATOLIUS
