At Dismission

Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: Laudes Domini #76 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Once more, before we part Lyrics: 1 Once more, before we part, Oh, bless the Saviour's name! Let every tongue and every heart Adore and praise the same. 2 Lord, in thy grace we came, That blessing still impart; We met in Jesus' sacred name, In Jesus' name we part. 3 Still on thy holy word Help us to feed, and grow, Still to go on to know the Lord, And practice what we know. 4 Now, Lord, before we part, Help us to bless thy name; Let every tongue and every heart Adore and praise the same.

Evening

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #77 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The swift declining day Lyrics: 1 The swift declining day, How fast its moments fly! While evening's broad and gloomy shade Gains on the western sky. 2 Ye mortals, mark its pace, And use the hours of light; And know, its Maker can command At once eternal night. 3 Give glory to the Lord, Who rules the whirling sphere; Submissive at his footstool bow, And seek salvation there. 4 Then shall new lustre break Through death's impending gloom, And lead you to unchanging light, In your celestial home.

Home Hymn

Author: John Leland Hymnal: Laudes Domini #78 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The day is past and gone Lyrics: 1 The day is past and gone, The evening shades appear; Oh, may we all remember well The night of death draws near! 2 We lay our garments by, Upon our beds to rest; So death will soon disrobe us all Of what we here possessed. 3 Lord, keep us safe this night, Secure from all our fears; May angels guard us while we sleep, Till morning light appears. 4 And when we early rise, And view the unwearied sun, May we set out to win the prize, And after glory run. 5 And when our days are past, And we from time remove, Oh, may we in thy bosom rest, The bosom of thy love!

Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #79 (1890) Topics: Close of Service 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, oh, abide with me! 2 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word, But as thou dwell'st with thy disciples, Lord, Familiar, condescending, patient, free, Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me. 3 I need thy presence every passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like thyself my guide and stay can be? Thro' cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me! Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

Evening blessing

Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: Laudes Domini #91 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Saviour, breathe an evening blessing Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing; Thou canst save, and thou canst heal. Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow near us fly, Angel guards from thee surround us, We are safe if thou art nigh. 2 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from thee; Thou art he who, never weary, Watcheth where thy people be. Should swift death this night o'ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn in heaven awake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom. Languages: English Tune Title: VESPER HYMN
