At Even, When the Sun was Set

Author: Henry Twells Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 321 hymnals Topics: Worship of God Lyrics: 1 At even, when the sun was set, The sick, O Lord, around Thee lay; O in what divers pains they met! O with what joy they went away! 2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we Oppressed with various ills, draw near: What if thy form we cannot see; We know and feel that thou art here. 3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel: For some are sick, and some are sad, And some have never loved Thee well, And some have lost the love they had; 4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest, For none are wholly free from sin; And they who fain would serve thee best Are conscious most of wrong within. 5 O Saviour Christ, thou too art man, Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried; Thy kind but searching glance can scan The very wounds that shame would hide. 6 Thy touch has still its ancient pow'r; No word from thee can fruitless fall: Hear in this solemn evening hour, And in Thy mercy heal us all. Amen. Used With Tune: ANGELUS
