Author: George W. Doane Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #563 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day
Fades upon our sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, we would commune with thee.
2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye
Naught escapes, without, within,
Pardon each infirmity,
Open fault, and secret sin.
3 Soon from us the light of day
Shall forever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take us, Lord, to dwell with thee. Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Tune Title: MERCY
Softly now the light of day
