Sun of my soul
Again, as Evening's Shadow Falls
Author: Samuel Longfellow (1819-1892) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 161 hymnals Matching Instances: 13 Lyrics: 1 Again, as evening's shadow falls,
We gather in these hallowed walls;
And vesper hymn and vesper prayer
Rise mingling on the holy air.
2 May struggling hearts that seek release
Here find the rest of God's own peace;
And, strengthened here by hymn and prayer,
Lay down the burden and the care.
3 O God, our light! to Thee we bow;
Within all shadows standest Thou;
Give deeper calm than night can bring;
Give sweeter songs than lips can sing.
4 Life's tumult we must meet again,
We cannot at the shrine remain;
But in the spirit's secret cell
May hymn and prayer forever dwell.
Amen. Topics: Contentment; Evening; Opening of Worship; Rest; Trial and Conflict; Worship Evening Scripture: Psalm 92:1-2 Used With Tune: ABENDS
Again, as Evening's Shadow Falls
At Even, Ere the Sun Was Set
Author: Henry Twells, 1823-1900 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 312 hymnals Matching Instances: 9 Lyrics: 1 At even, ere the sun was set,
The sick, O Lord, around Thee lay;
O in what divers pains they met!
O with what joy they went away!
2 Once more ’tis eventide, and we,
Oppressed with various ills, draw near;
What if Thy form we cannot see?
We know and feel that Thou art here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel;
For some are sick, and some are sad,
And some have never loved Thee well,
And some have lost the love they had.
4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin;
And they who fain would serve Thee best,
Are conscious most of wrong within.
5 O Saviour Christ, Thou too art man;
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide.
6 Thy touch has still its ancient power,
No word from Thee can fruitless fall;
Hear, in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all. Topics: Closing and Vesper Hymns Used With Tune: ABENDS

O Light of life, O Saviour dear
Author: Francis T. Palgrave Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 O Light of life, O Saviour dear,
Before we sleep bow down Thine ear:
Through dark and day, o'er land and sea,
We have no other hope but Thee.
2 Oft from Thy royal road we part,
Lost in the mazes of the heart:
Our lamps put out, our course forgot,
We seek for God, and find Him not.
3 What sudden sunbeams cheer our sight!
What dawning risen upon the night!
Thou giv'st Thyself to us, and we
Find guide and path and all in Thee.
4 Through day and darkness, Saviour dear,
Abide with us, more nearly near;
Till on Thy face we lift our eyes,
The Sun of God's own Paradise.
Amen. Topics: Times of Worship Evening; Christ Abiding with Believers; Christ Light, Our; Christ Presence, His Living; Christ Guide, Our; Evening hymns; Worship Evening Used With Tune: ABENDS
O Light of life, O Saviour dear
O holy Lord, content to fill
Author: William Walsham How Appears in 46 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 O holy Lord, content to fill
In lowly home the lowliest place,
Thy childhood’s law a mother’s will,
Obedience meek Thy brightest grace;
2 Lead every child that bears Thy Name
To walk in Thine own guileless way,
To dread the touch of sin and shame,
And humbly, like Thyself, obey.
3 Gather Thy lambs within Thine arm,
And gently in Thy bosom bear;
Keep them, O Lord, from hurt and harm,
And bid them rest forever there.
4 So shall they, waiting here below,
Like Thee, their Lord, a little span,
In wisdom and in stature grow,
And favor with both God and man.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life The Family Used With Tune: ABENDS

Fight the good fight with all thy might
Author: J. S. Monsell Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 480 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Fight the good fight with all thy might,
Christ is thy strength and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
2 Run the straight race through God's good grace
Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face;
Life with its way before us lies,
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.
3 Cast care aside, lean on thy guide,
His boundless mercy will provide;
Trust, and enduring faith shall prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its love.
4 Faint not nor fear, for He is near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and you will see
That Christ is all in all to thee.

Go Labour On
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 435 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 First Line: Go labour on; spend, and be spent Lyrics: 1 Go, labour on; spend, and be spent,
Thy joy to do the Father's will;
It is the way the Master went;
Should not the servant tread it still?
2 Go, labour on; 'tis not for naught;
Thy earthly loss is heav'nly gain;
Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not;
The Master praises what are men?
3 Go, labour on; your hands are week,
Your knees are faint, your soul cast down;
Yet falter not; the prize you seek'
Is near a kingdom and a crown.
4 Go, labour on while it is day:
The world's dark night is hast'ning on:
Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away;
It is not thus that souls are won.
5 Toil on faint not, keep watch, and pray;
Be wise the erring soul to win;
Go forth into the world's highway;
Compel the wand'rer to come in.
6 Toil on, and in thy toil rejoice;
For toil comes rest, for exile home;
Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom's voice,
The midnight cry, "Behold, I come!" Topics: Challenge; Discipleship; Service Used With Tune: [Go labour on; spend, and be spent]
