The day is gently sinking to a close

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #27a (1899) Lyrics: 1 The day is gently sinking to a close, Fainter and yet more faint the sunlight glows: O Brightness of Thy Father's glory, Thou Eternal Light of Light, be with us now: Where Thou art present darkness cannot be; Midnight is glorious noon, O Lord, with Thee. 2 Our changeful lives are ebbing to an end; Onward to darkness and to death we tend; O Conqueror of the grave, be Thou our guide, Be Thou our Light in death's dark eventide; Then in our mortal hour will be no gloom, No sting in death, no terror in the tomb. 3 Thou who in darkness walking didst appear Upon the waves, and Thy disciples cheer, Come, Lord, in lonesome days, when storms assail, And earthly hopes and human succors fail; When all is dark, may we behold Thee nigh, And hear Thy voice: "Fear not, for it is I." 4 The weary world is mould'ring to decay, Its glories wane, its pageants fade away; In that last sunset, when the stars shall fall, May we arise, awakened by Thy call, With Thee, O Lord, forever to abide In that blest day which has no eventide! Amen. Topics: Abiding of Christ with Believers; Assurance; Christ Presence of; Evening; God Our Guide Languages: English Tune Title: CONWAY
