24. O Light, O Trinity most Blest!

1 O Light, O Trinity most Blest!
True God, Supreme and ever Best;
As now the sun of day departs,
Outpour Thy beams upon our hearts.

2 To thee, at morn our hymns we raise,
At evening offer prayer and praise;
And Thou our glorious theme shalt be,
Now and through all eternity.

3 As darkness deepens, Lord, do Thou
A night of quiet rest bestow;
From all our sins grant us release,
And bless us with Thy perfect peace.

Amen.
