Our day of praise is done

Author: Rev. John Ellerton Hymnal: HAGA1895 #31 (1895) Lyrics: 1. Our day of praise is done; The evening shadows fall; But pass not from us with the sun, True Light that lightenest all. 2. Around the throne on high, Where night can never be, The white-robed harpers of the sky Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee. 3. Too faint our anthems here; Too soon of praise we tire: But O, the strains, how full and clear, Of that eternal choir! 4. Yet, Lord, to Thy dear will If Thou attune the heart, We in Thine angels' music still May bear our lower part. 5. 'Tis Thine each soul to calm, Each wayward thought reclaim, And make our life a daily psalm Of glory to Thy Name. 6. A little while, and then Shall come the glorious end; And songs of angels and of men In perfect praise shall blend. Amen.

This night, O Lord, we bless thee

Author: Rev. James D. Burns Hymnal: HAGA1895 #32 (1895) Lyrics: 1. This night, O Lord, we bless Thee For Thy protecting care, And ere we rest, address Thee In lowly, fervent prayer: From evil and temptation Defend us through the night, And round our habitation Be Thou a wall of light. 2. On Thee our whole reliance From day to day we cast, To Thee with firm affiance, Would cleave from first to last; To Thee, through Jesus' merit, For needful grace we come, And trust that Thy good Spirit Will guide us safely home. 3. What may be on the morrow Our foresight cannot see; But be it joy or sorrow, We know it comes from Thee. And nothing can take from us, Where'er our steps may move, The staff of Thy sure promise, The shield of Thy true love. Amen.

Grateful Acknowledgment

Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: HAGA1895 #33 (1895) First Line: My God, how endless is thy love Lyrics: 1. My God, how endless is Thy love! Thy gifts are every evening new! And morning mercies from above Gently distil like earthly dew. 2. Thou spread'st the curtains of the night, Great Guardian of my sleeping hours: Thy sovereign word restores the light, And quickens all my drowsy powers. 3. I yield my powers to Thy command, To Thee I consecrate my days; Perpetual blessings from Thy hand, Demand perpetual songs of praise. Amen.

Savior, when night involves the skies

Author: Rev. Thomas Gisborne Hymnal: HAGA1895 #34 (1895) Lyrics: 1. Saviour, when night involves the skies, My soul, adoring, turns to Thee; Thee, self-abased in mortal guise, And wrapt in shades of death for me. 2. On thee my waking raptures dwell, When crimson gleams the east adorn, Thee, Victor of the grave and hell, Thee, source of life's eternal morn. 3. When noon her throne in light arrays, To Thee my soul triumphant springs; Thee, throned in glory's endless blaze, Thee, Lord of lords and King of kings. 4. O'er earth, when shades of evening steal, To death and Thee my thoughts I give; To death, whose power I soon shall feel, To Thee, with whom I trust to live. Amen.

Lord of power, Lord of might

Author: Rev. Godfrey Thring Hymnal: HAGA1895 #35 (1895) Lyrics: 1. Lord of power, Lord of might; God and Father of us all; Lord of day, and Lord of night, Listen to our solemn call: Listen, whilst to Thee we raise Songs of prayer, and songs of praise. 2. Light, and love, and life, are Thine, Great Creator of all good; Fill our souls with light Divine; Give us with our daily food Blessings from Thy heavenly store, Blessings rich for evermore. 3. Graft within our heart of hearts Love undying for Thy Name; Bid us ere the day departs Spread afar our Maker's fame: Young and old together bless, Clothe our souls with righteousness. 4. Full of years, and full of peace, May our life on earth be blest; When our trials here shall cease, And at last we sink to rest, Fountain of eternal love, Call us to our home above. Amen.

My Lord, my Love, was crucified

Author: Rev. John Mason Hymnal: HAGA1895 #36 (1895) Lyrics: 1. My Lord, my Love, was crucified, He all the pains did bear; But in the sweetness of His rest He makes His servants share. 2. How sweetly rest Thy saints above Which in Thy bosom lie; The Church below doth rest in hope Of that felicity. 3. Thou, Lord, who daily feed'st Thy sheep, Mak'st them a weekly feast; Thy flocks meet in their several folds Upon this day of rest. 4. Welcome and dear unto my soul Are these sweet feasts of love; But what a Sabbath shall I keep When I shall rest above! 5. I bless Thy wise and wondrous love, Which binds us to be free; Which makes us leave our earthly snares, That we may come to Thee. 6. I come, I wait, I hear, I pray, Thy footsteps, Lord, I trace; I sing to think this is the way Unto my Saviour's face. Amen.

This is the day the Lord hath made

Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: HAGA1895 #37 (1895)

Welcome, delightful morn

Hymnal: HAGA1895 #38 (1895) Lyrics: 1. Welcome, delightful morn, Thou day of sacred rest; I hail thy kind return; Lord, make these moments blest: From the low train of mortal toys, I soar to reach immortal joys. 2. Now may the King descend, and fill His throne of grace: Thy sceptre, Lord, extend, While saints address Thy face; Let sinners feel Thy quickening word, And learn to know and fear the Lord. 3. Descend, celestial Dove, With all Thy quickening powers; Disclose a Saviour's love, And bless these sacred hours; Then shall my soul new life obtain, Nor Sabbath's ere be spent in vain. Amen.

Lord of the Sabbath, hear us pray

Author: Rev. Philip Doddridge Hymnal: HAGA1895 #40 (1895) Lyrics: 1. Lord of the Sabbath, hear us pray, In this Thy house, on this Thy day; And own as grateful sacrifice, The songs which from Thy temple rise. 2. Now met to pray and bless Thy Name, Whose mercies flow each day the same, Whose kind compassions never cease, We seek instruction, pardon, peace. 3. Thy day of rest, O Lord, we love, But look for truer rest above; To that our laboring souls aspire With ardent hope and strong desire. 4. In Thy blest Kingdom we shall be From every mortal trouble free; No sighs shall mingle with the songs Resounding from immortal tongues. 5. No rude alarms of raging foes; No cares to break the long repose; No midnight shade, no waning moon, But sacred, high, eternal noon. 6. O long-expected day begin, Dawn on these realms of woe and sin! Break, morn of God, upon our eyes; And let the world's true Sun arise.
