Softly now the Light of Day
Author: Geo. W. Doane Hymnal: Concordia #246 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day
Fades upon my sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, I would commune with Thee.
2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye
Naught escapes, without, within,
Pardon each infirmity,
Open fault, and secret sin.
3 Soon, for me, the light of day
Shall forever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take me, Lord, to dwell with Thee.
4 Thou who, sinless, yet hast known
All of man's infirmity,
Then, from Thine eternal throne,
Jesus, look with pitying eye. Languages: English Tune Title: SEYMOUR
Softly now the Light of Day
Sun of My Soul!
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Concordia #247 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening First Line: Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul! Thou Savior dear,
It is not night if Thou be near:
Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes!
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep,
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last tho't--how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior's breast!
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
4 Be near to bless me when I wake,
Ere thro' the world my way I take;
Abide with me till in Thy love
I lose myself in heav'n above. Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY
Sun of My Soul!
Father Almighty, Darkness now is Deep'ning
Author: Sven O. Sigmond Hymnal: Concordia #249 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening Lyrics: 1 Father Almighty, darkness now is deep'ning,
And we commend us to Thy gracious keeping;
Oh, may Thine angels guards us in our sleeping,
Protect us through this night!
2 Blessed Lord Jesus, Thou whose side is riven,
Thou by whose wounds our sins are all forgiven:
Draw us to Thee, to Thy dear Self in heaven,
From ev'ry sin release!
3 O Holy Spirit, Christ the Son explaining,
Who with the Father and the Son art reigning,
And for us all eternal life art gaining:
Direct us by Thy light!
4 Father and Son and Holy Spirit, blending
All three in One in ages without ending:
Oh, let Thy blessing on us be descending,
Grant us Thy perfect peace! Languages: English Tune Title: INTEGER VITÆ
Father Almighty, Darkness now is Deep'ning
Alone With Thee
Author: M. A. Urseth Hymnal: Concordia #251 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening First Line: Alone with Thee, O Lord, when day is dead Lyrics: 1 Alone with Thee, O Lord, when day is dead
And all its faded splendors on have fled,
I fondly dwell, and listen at Thy knee
The words, the wond'rous words that come from Thee.
2 Alone with Thee, dear Lamb of Calvary,
Who shed Thy blood, and died, and lives for me,
I long to stay to see Thy wounded side,
And know that all my sorrows it can hide.
3 Alone with Thee I only pray to be
When light and way I can no longer see,
That I may safely reach across the line,
And hold in mine no other hand but Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: DET SPREDES MER
Alone With Thee
Abide With Me
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Concordia #253 (1918) Topics: Closing and Evening Hymns Evening First Line: Abide with me; fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need Thy presence ev'ry passing hour,
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 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.
5 Hold Thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

And evening steals o'er earth and sky,
Once more to Thee our hymns ascending
Shall speak Thy praises, Lord Most High.
2 O Light all clear, O Truth most holy,
O boundless Mercy pardoning all,
Before Thy feet, abashed and lowly,
With one last prayer Thy children fall.
3 When we no more on earth adore Thee,
And others worship here in turn,
O may we sing that song before Thee,
Which none but Thy redeemed can learn.
Amen. Tune Title: SUNSET
Before the day draws near its ending
