Before the ending of the day
Author: J. M. Neale; St. Ambrose (?) Hymnal: CHRC1920 #21 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world we pray
That with Thy wonted favour, Thou
Wouldst be our guard and keeper now.
2 From all ill dreams defend our sight,
From fears and terrors of the night;
Withhold from us our ghostly foe,
That spot of sin we may not know.
3 O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, Thine only Son
Who, with the Holy Ghost and Thee,
Doth live and reign eternally. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: PIERICINI
Before the ending of the day
Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go
Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: CHRC1920 #22 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go;
Thy Word into our minds instill;
And make our lukewarm hearts to glow
With lowly love and fervent will;
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
2 The day is gone, its hours have run,
And Thou hast taken count of all,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won,
The broken vow, the frequent fall.
Thro life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways
True absolution and release;
And bless us, more than in past days,
With purity and inward peace,
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
4 For all we love, the poor, the sad,
The sinful, unto Thee we call;
O let Thy mercy make us glad;
Thou art our Saviour, and our all.
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
5 Sweet Saviour, bless us; night is come;
Thro' night and darkness near us be;
Good angels watch about our home,
And we are one day nearer Thee.
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MATTHIAS
Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go
Our day of praise is done
Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: CHRC1920 #23 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Our day of praise is done;
The evening shadows fall;
But pass not from us with the sun,
True Light that light'nest 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. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: ALLINGTON
Our day of praise is done
As now the sun's declining rays
Author: J. Chandler; C. Coffin Hymnal: CHRC1920 #24 (1920) Lyrics: 1 As now the sun's declining rays
At eventide descend,
E'en so our years are sinking down
To their appointed end.
2 Lord, on the cross Thine arms were stretched
To draw the nations nigh;
O grant us then that cross to love,
And in those arms to die.
3 To God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Holy Ghost,
All glory be from saints on earth,
And from the angel host. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: HOLY TRINITY
As now the sun's declining rays
O Trinity of blessed light
Author: J. M. Neale; St. Ambrose Hymnal: CHRC1920 #25 (1920) Lyrics: 1 O Trinity of blessed light,
O Unity of princely might,
The fiery sun now goes his way;
Shed now within our hearts Thy ray.
2 To Thee our morning song of praise,
To Thee our evening prayer we raise;
O grant us with Thy saints on high
To praise Thee through eternity.
3 All laud to God the Father be;
All praise, eternal Son, to Thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: EDEN
O Trinity of blessed light
Bless me, O my Saviour, bless me
Author: B. W. R. Taylor Hymnal: CHRC1920 #26 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Bless me, O my Saviour, bless me,
Kneeling at Thy throne of grace;
Here I sought Thee, here I find Thee,
In Thine ark and resting place.
2 Blessed Saviour, Thou who gavest
Full redemption by Thy Blood,
Wash me from my foul offences,
Cleanse me, O Thou Son of God!
3 Breathe upon me, Gracious Spirit,
Benediction full and strong,
Keep my feet in safety's pathway,
Keep my soul from sin and wrong.
4 Sacred Trinity of Power,
Mystic Unity above,
Sanctify this evening hour
With Thine endless, boundless love.
5 Throned in glory, veiled in splendour,
Praised by all the heavenly host.
Hear our Holy, Holy, Holy,
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: PEACE
Bless me, O my Saviour, bless me
The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended
Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: CHRC1920 #27 (1920) Lyrics: 1 The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended,
The darkness falls at Thy behest;
To Thee our morning hymns ascended,
Thy praise shall sanctify our rest.
2 We thank Thee that Thy Church unsleeping,
While earth rolls onward into light,
Though all the world her watch is keeping,
And rests not now by day or night.
3 As o'er each continent and island
The dawn leads on another day,
The voice of prayer is never silent,
Nor dies the strain of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
Our brethren 'neath the western sky,
And hour by hour fresh lips are making
Thy wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, Lord; Thy throne shall ever,
Like earth's proud empires, pass away;
Thy kingdom stands, and grows for ever,
Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CLEMENT
The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended
O day of rest and gladness
Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: CHRC1920 #28 (1920) Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee, the high and lowly,
Through ages joined in tune,
Sing Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the great God Triune.
2 On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth;
On thee for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee our Lord victorious
The Spirit sent from heaven;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given.
3 Thou art a port protected
From storms that round us rise;
A garden intersected
With streams of Paradise;
Thou art a cooling fountain
In life's dry dreary sand;
From thee, like Pisgah's mountain,
We view our promised land.
4 To-day on weary nations
The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where Gospel-light is glowing,
With pure and radiant beams
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
5 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the Rest remaining
To spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: DAY OF REST
O day of rest and gladness
This is the day of Light
Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: CHRC1920 #29 (1920) Lyrics: 1 This is the day of Light:
Let there be light today;
O Day-spring, rise upon our night,
And chase its gloom away.
2 This is the day of Rest:
Our failing strength renew;
On weary brain and troubled breast
Shed Thou Thy freshening dew.
3 This is the day of Peace:
Thy peace our spirits fill;
Bid Thou the blasts of discord cease,
The waves of strife be still.
4 This is the day of prayer:
Let earth to heaven draw near:
Lift up our hearts to seek Thee there;
Come down to meet us there.
5 This is the First of days:
Send forth Thy quickening breath,
And wake dead souls to love and praise,
O Vanquisher of death! Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: SWABIA
This is the day of Light
Safely through another week
Author: J. Newton Hymnal: CHRC1920 #30 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Safely through another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest:
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
2 While we pray for pardoning grace,
Through the dear Redeemer's Name,
Show Thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame;
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
3 Here we come Thy Name to praise,
Let us feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
4 May Thy Gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints:
May the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints;
Such the days of rest we love,
Till we join the Church above. Topics: The Lord's Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: SABBATH
