Before the Day Draws Near Its Ending

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Hymnbook #57 (1955) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Lyrics: 1 Before the day draws near its ending, And evening steals o'er earth and sky, Once more to Thee our hymns ascending Shall speak Thy praises, Lord Most High. 2 O Light all clear, O Truth most holy, O boundless Mercy pardoning all, Before Thy feet, abashed and lowly, With one last prayer Thy children fall. 3 When we no more on earth adore Thee, And others worship here in turn, O may we sing that song before Thee, Which none but Thy redeemed can learn. Amen. Topics: Adoration and Praise; Evening; Life Everlasting, The; Prayer; Worship Evening Scripture: Psalm 141:2 Tune Title: SUNSET

Well for him who all things losing

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Anon. Hymnal: Lyra Germanica #57 (1861) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Lyrics: Well for him who all things losing, E'en himself doth count as nought, Still the one thing needful choosing That with all true bliss is fraught! Well for him who nothing knoweth But his God, whose boundless love Makes the heart wherein it gloweth, Calm and pure as saints above! Well for him who all forsaking Walketh not in shadows vain, But the path of peace is taking Through this vale of tears and pain! Oh that we our hearts might sever From earth's tempting vanities, Fixing them on Him for ever In whom all our fulness lies! Oh that we might Him discover Whom with longing love we've sought, Joining us to Him for ever, For without Him all is nought! Oh that ne'er our eyes might wander From our God, so might we cease Ever o'er our sins to ponder, And our conscience be at peace! Thou abyss of love and goodness, Draw us by Thy cross to Thee, That our senses, soul, and spirit Ever one with Christ may be! Languages: English

The Day Thou Gavest, Lord, Is Ended

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Hymnbook #59 (1955) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Lyrics: 1 The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended, The darkness falls at Thy behest; To Thee our morning hymns ascended, Thy praise shall hallow now our rest. 2 We thank Thee that Thy Church unsleeping, While earth rolls onward into light, Through 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 never, Like earth's proud empires, pass away; Thy Kingdom stands, and grows forever Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway. Amen. Topics: Church, The Church Expectant; Evening; Prayer; Worship Evening Scripture: Psalm 72:15 Tune Title: COMMANDMENTS
