Savior, again to Thy dear name we raise
Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #54 (1913) Topics: Close of Service; Worship in General Close of Service; Close of Service Lyrics: 1 Savior, again to Thy dear name we raise
With one accord our parting hymn of praise;
Once more we bless Thee ere our worship cease,
Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace.
2 Grant us thy peace upon our homeward way;
With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day:
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon Thy name.
3 Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night,
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.
4 Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace. Tune Title: [Savior, again to Thy dear name we raise]

O gentle Jesus, be our LIght
Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #55 (1913) Topics: Close of Service; Worship in General Close of Service; Close of Service First Line: Sweet Savior, bless us ere we go Lyrics: 1 Sweet Savior, bless us ere we go;
Thy word into our minds instill;
And make our luke-warm hearts to glow
With lowly love and fervent will.
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our light.
2 The day is done, its hours have run,
And Thou hast taken count of all,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won,
The broken vow, the frequent fall.
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our light.
3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways
True absolution and release,
And bless us, more than in past days,
With purity and inward peace,
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our light.
4 For all we love, the poor, the sad,
The sinful, unto Thee we call;
O let Thy mercy make us glad:
Thou art our Savior, and our all.
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our light.
5 Sweet Savior, bless us; night is come;
Through night and darkness near us be;
Good angels watch about our home,
And we are one day nearer Thee.
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our light.

In Thine own appointed way;
Give each fainting soul a token
Of Thy tender love today;
Set Thy seal on every heart,
Jesus, bless us ere we part!

Watch each anxious child of Thine;
Let us all arise tomorrow
Strengthened by Thy grace divine;
Set Thy seal on every heart,
Jesus, bless us ere we part!

Make us contrite, pure, and lowly,
By Thy great example taught;
Set Thy seal on every heart;

Evening of Life
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #80 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day Lyrics: 1 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories away:
Change and decay in all around I see;
O thou, who changest not, abide with me!
2 Come not in terrors, as the King of kings;
But kind and good, with healing in thy wings,
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, and abide with me.
3 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless,
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;
Where is Death's sting? where, Grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
4 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Languages: English
