Evening blessing
Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: LD1890 #91 (1890) First Line: Saviour, breathe an evening blessing 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.
Though destruction walk around us,
Though the arrow near us fly,
Angel guards from thee surround us,
We are safe if thou art nigh.
2 Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot hide from thee;
Thou art he who, never weary,
Watcheth where thy people be.
Should swift death this night o'ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb,
May the morn in heaven awake us,
Clad in light and deathless bloom. Topics: Close of Service; Close of Worship; Evening; God Providence; Close of Worship; Evening; God Providence Languages: English Tune Title: VESPER HYMN

The Pilgrim
Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: LD1890 #92 (1890) First Line: Gently, Lord, oh, gently lead us Lyrics: 1 Gently, Lord, oh, gently lead us,
Through this lonely vale of tears;
Through the changes thou'st decreed us,
Till our last great change appears.
When temptation's darts assail us,
When in devious paths we stray,
Let thy goodness never fail us,
Lead us in thy perfect way.
2 In the hour of pain and anguish,
In the hour when death draws near,
Suffer not our hearts to languish,
Suffer not our souls to fear.
And when mortal life is ended,
Bid us in thine arms to rest,
Till, by angel bands attended,
We awake among the blest. Topics: Close of Service; Close of Worship; Evening; Guidance; Sickness; Close of Worship; Evening; Guidance; Sickness Languages: English

Evening Prayer
Author: Harriet Parr Hymnal: LD1890 #98 (1890) First Line: Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father Lyrics: 1 Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father,
Ere I lay me down to sleep;
Bid thine angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.
2 Great my sins are, but thy mercy
Far outweighs them every one;
Down before thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in thy help alone.
3 Keep me, through this night of peril,
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to thy rest, I pray thee,
When my pilgrimage is made.
4 None shall measure out thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which they holy Son has brought.
5 Pardon all my past transgressions;
Give me strength for days to come;
Guide and guard me with thy blessing,
Till thine angels bid me home. Topics: Close of Service; Close of Worship; Evening; God Forbearance; Close of Worship; Evening; God Forbearance Languages: English Tune Title: WRAYSBURY

For our trust is all in thee:

Which alone can make us free!

Through the long lone dismal night,
Grant that calmly, on thee resting,
We may wait for morning light.

Grant the heart-wish that is dearest;
He who knows can also do! Topics: Close of Service; Close of Worship; Evening; Close of Worship; Evening Languages: English
