Now the day is over

Author: Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834 - 1924 Appears in 945 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh, Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky. 2 Now the darkness gathers, Stars begin to peep, Birds and beasts and flowers Soon will be asleep. 3 Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose; With thy tenderest blessing May mine eyelids close. A-men. 4 Grant to little children Visions bright of thee; Guard the sailors tossing On the deep blue sea. 5 Comfort every sufferer Watching late in pain; Those who plan some evil From their sins restrain. 6 Through the long night-watches May thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed. 7 When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure and fresh and sinless In thy holy eyes. 8 Glory to the Father, Glory to the Son, And to thee, blest Spirit, Whilst all ages run. Amen. Topics: Church Life and Work Travellers; The Church Worship - Evening Used With Tune: ST. LUCIAN
