The hours of evening close

Author: Conder Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #720 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 The hours of evening close; Its lengthened shadows, drawn O'er scenes of earth, invite repose, And wait the Sabbath dawn. 2 So let its calm prevail O'er forms of outward care; Nor thought for many things assail The still retreat of prayer. 3 Our guardian Shepherd near His watchful eye will keep; And safe from violence or fear Will fold his flock to sleep. 4 So may a holier light Than earth's our spirits rouse, And call us, strengthened by his might, To pay the Lord our vows.

Softly, now, the light of day

Author: Doane Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #721 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar 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 Soon, for me, the light of day Shall for ever pass away; Then, from sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with thee.

Glory to thee, my God, this night

Author: Ken Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #722 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Glory to thee, my God, this night, For all the blessings of the light; Keep me, oh, keep me, King of kings! Beneath the shadow of thy wings. 2 Forgive me, Lord! for thy dear Son, The ill that I this day have done; That with the world, myself, and thee, My soul, this night, at peace may be. 3 Teach me to live, that I may dread The grave as little as my bed; Teach me to die, that so I may Rise glorious, at the judgment-day. 4 Oh, may my faith on thee repose; May gentle sleep my eyelids close, That shall my frame more vigorous make, To serve my God when I awake. 5 Lord, let my soul for ever share The bliss of thy parental care; 'Tis heaven on earth, 'tis heaven above, To see thy face, and sing thy love. Scripture: Psalm 4:8

Thus far the Lord has led me on

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #723 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on, Thus far his power prolongs my days; And every evening shall make known Some fresh memorial of his grace. 2 Much of my time has run to waste, And I perhaps am near my home; But he forgives my follies past, He gives me strength for days to come. 3 I lay my body down to sleep; Peace is the pillow for my head; While well-appointed angels keep Their watchful stations round my bed. 4 Thus when the night of death shall come, My flesh shall rest beneath the ground, And wait thy voice to rouse my tomb, With sweet salvation in the sound. Scripture: Job 11:18-19

Now condescend, almighty King

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #724 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Now condescend, almighty King, To bless this little throng; And kindly listen while we sing Our pleasant evening song. 2 Brothers and sisters, hand in hand, Our lips together move: Oh, smile upon this little band, Unite our hearts in love. 3 We come to own the power divine That watches o'er our days; For this our feeble voices join; To God we give the praise. 4 May we in safety sleep to-night, From every danger free; For, Lord, the darkness and the light Are both alike to thee. 5 And when the rising sun displays His cheering beams abroad, Then may our grateful morning lays Declare the love of God.
