Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear

Author: John Keble Hymnal: LHTC1918 #463 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear, It is not night if Thou be near; O may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes. 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep My weary eyelids gently steep, Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Forever on my Saviour's breast. 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, For without Thee I cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without Thee I dare not die. 4 If some poor wandering child of Thine Have spurned to-day the voice divine, Now, Lord, the gracious work begin; Let him no more lie down in sin. 5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor With blessings from Thy boundless store; Be every mourner's sleep to-night Like infant's slumbers, pure and light. 6 Come near and bless us when we wake, Ere through the world our way we take; Till in the ocean of Thy love We lose ourselves in heaven above. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY

The sun declines; o'er land and sea

Author: Robert Walmsley Hymnal: LHTC1918 #464 (1917) Lyrics: 1 The sun declines; o’er land and sea Creeps on the night; The twinkling stars come one by one To shed their light; With Thee there is no darkness, Lord; With us abide, And ’neath Thy wings we rest secure This eventide. 2 Forgive the wrong this day we’ve done, Or thought, or said; Each moment with its good or ill To Thee has fled; O Father, in Thy mercy great Will we confide; Thy benediction now bestow This eventide. 3 And when with morning light we rise, Kept by Thy care, We'll lift to Thee, with grateful hearts, Our morning prayer. Be Thou through life our strength and stay, Our guard and guide To that dear home where there will be No eventide. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: GLOAMING

Softly now the light of day

Author: George Washington Doane Hymnal: LHTC1918 #465 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away; Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with Thee! 2 Thou, Whose all-pervading eye Naught escapes without, within, Pardon each infirmity, Open fault, and secret sin. 3 Soon for me the light of day Shall for ever pass away; Then, from sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with Thee. 4 Thou Who, sinless, yet hast known All of man's infirmity, Then, from Thine eternal throne, Jesus, look with pitying eye. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: WEBER

Source of light and life divine

Author: John Chandler Hymnal: LHTC1918 #466 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Source of light and life divine, Thou didst cause the light to shine; Thou didst bring Thy sunbeams forth O’er Thy new-created earth. 2 Shade of eve, and morning ray, Took from Thee the name of day: Now the shades of night are nigh, Listen to our mournful cry. 3 May we ne’er, by guilt opprest, Lose the way to endless rest; May no thoughts impure and vain Draw our souls to earth again. 4 Rather lift them to the skies, Where our dear-bought treasure lies; Help us in our daily strife, Make us struggle into life. 5 Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, Three in One, Praise and glory be to Thee, Now and through eternity. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: UNIVERSITY COLLEGE

Saviour, breathe an evening blessing

Author: James Edmeston; Godfrey Thring Hymnal: LHTC1918 #467 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing: Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal. 2 Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow past us fly, Angel-guards from Thee surround us; We are safe if Thou art nigh. 3 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He, Who, never weary, Watchest where Thy people be. 4 Be Thou nigh should death o’ertake us; Jesus, then our Refuge be; And in Paradise awake us, There to rest in peace with Thee. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: EVENING PRAYER

God, that madest earth and heaven

Author: Reginald Heber, d. 1826; Richard Whately; William Mercer Hymnal: LHTC1918 #468 (1917) Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven, Darkness and light; Who the day for toil hast given, For rest the night; May thine angel-guards defend us, Slumber sweet Thy mercy send us, Holy dreams and hopes attend us, This livelong night. 2 And when morn again shall call us To run life's way, May we still, whate'er befall us, Thy will obey. From the power of evil hide us, In the narrow pathway guide us, Nor Thy smile be e'er denied us The live-long day. 3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping, And, when we die, May we in Thy mighty keeping All peaceful lie. When the last dread trump shall wake us, Do not Thou, O God, forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With Thee on high. Amen.

Though Satan would devour me, Let angel-guards sing o'er me: This child of God shall meet no harm. 3 My loved ones, rest securely, For God this night will surely From peril guard your heads; Sweet slumbers may He send you, And bid His hosts attend you, And through the night watch o'er your beds.

Now from the altar of our hearts

Author: John Mason Hymnal: LHTC1918 #470 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Now from the altar of our hearts Let incense flames arise; Assist us, Lord, to offer up Our evening sacrifice. 2 Minutes and mercies multiplied Have made up all this day; Minutes came quick, but mercies were More fleet and free than they. 3 New time, new favors, and new joys Do a new song require; Till we shall praise thee as we would, Accept our heart's desire. 4 Lord of our time, Whose hand hath set New time upon our score, Thee shall I praise for all our time, When time shall be no more!
