Heaven and earth, and sea, and air
Author: Joachim Neander (1650-1680) Hymnal: The Hymnal #27 (1950) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Times of Worship Morning Lyrics: 1 Heaven and earth, and sea and air,
All their Maker's praise declare;
Wake, my soul, awake and sing:
Now thy grateful praises bring.
2 See the glorious orb of day
Breaking through the clouds his way;
Moon and stars with silvery light
Praise Him through the silent night.
3 See how He hath everywhere
Made this earth so rich and fair;
Hill and vale and fruitful land,
All things living, show His hand.
4 Lord, great wonders workest Thou!
To Thy sway all creatures bow;
Write Thou deeply in my heart
What I am, and what Thou art.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 19 Tune Title: GOTT SEI DANK DURCH ALLE WELT
Heaven and earth, and sea, and air
The sun is on the land and sea
Author: Rev. Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Hymnal #29 (1950) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.4 Topics: Times of Worship Morning Lyrics: 1 The sun is on the land and sea,
The day begun;
Our morning hymn begins with Thee,
Blest Three in One;
Our praise shall rise continually
Till day is done.
2 Thy love was ever in our view,
Like stars, by night;
Thy gifts are every morning new,
O God of light;
Thy mercy, like the heavens' blue,
Fills all our sight.
3 We do not know what grief or care
The day may bring:
The heart shall find some gladness there
That loves its King;
The life that serves Thee everywhere
Can always sing.
4 All glory to the Father be,
With Christ the Son,
And, Holy Spirit, unto Thee,
Forever One;
All glory to the Trinity
While ages run!
Amen.
The sun is on the land and sea
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide
Author: Rev. Henry Francis Lyte Hymnal: The Hymnal #33 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Times of Worship Evening 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, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, 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?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless:
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.
5 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies:
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee:
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
Amen. Tune Title: EVENTIDE (MONK)
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide
Now the day is over
Author: Rev. Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: The Hymnal #35 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Topics: Times of Worship Evening Lyrics: 1 Now the day is over,
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.
2 Jesus, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose;
With Thy tenderest blessing
May mine eyelids close.
3 Grant to little children
Visions bright of Thee;
Guard the sailors tossing
On the deep blue sea.
4 Through the long night watches,
May Thine angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching round my bed.
5 When the morning wakens,
Then may I arise
Pure, and fresh, and sinless
In Thy holy eyes.
Amen. Tune Title: MERRIAL
Now the day is over
Holy, holy, holy Lord God of hosts!
Author: Mary A. Lathbury Hymnal: The Hymnal #39 (1950) Meter: 7.7.7.7.4 with refrain Topics: Times of Worship Evening First Line: Day is dying in the west Lyrics: 1 Day is dying in the west;
Heaven is touching earth with rest:
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight
Through all the sky.
Refrain:
Holy, holy, holy Lord God of Hosts;
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord Most High!
2 Lord of life, beneath the dome
Of the universe, Thy home,
Gather us who seek Thy face
To the fold of Thy embrace,
For Thou art nigh. [Refrain]
3 While the deepening shadows fall,
Heart of Love, enfolding all,
Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend. [Refrain]
4 When forever from our sight
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,
And shadows end. [Refrain]
Amen. Tune Title: EVENING PRAISE
Holy, holy, holy Lord God of hosts!
The sun declines; o'er land and sea
Author: Robert Walmsley Hymnal: The Hymnal #40 (1950) Meter: 8.4.8.4 D Topics: Times of Worship Evening Lyrics: 1 The sun declines; o’er land and sea
Creeps on the night;
The twinkling stars come one by one
To shed their light;
With Thee there is no darkness, Lord;
With us abide,
And ’neath Thy wings we rest secure
This eventide.
2 Forgive the wrong this day we’ve done,
Or thought, or said;
Each moment with its good or ill
To Thee has fled;
O Father, in Thy mercy great
Will we confide;
Thy benediction now bestow
This eventide.
Amen. Tune Title: VINCENT
The sun declines; o'er land and sea
God, that madest earth and heaven
Author: Bishop Reginald Heber (1783-1826); Rev. William Mercer; Rev. Richard Whately (1787-1863) Hymnal: The Hymnal #41 (1950) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Topics: Times of Worship Evening Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven,
Darkness and light;
Who the day for toil hast given,
For rest the night;
May Thine angel guards defend us,
Slumber sweet Thy mercy send us;
Holy dreams and hopes attend us,
This livelong night.
2 And when morn again shall call us
To run life's way,
May we still, whate'er befall us,
Thy will obey.
From the power of evil hide us,
In the narrow pathway guide us,
Nor Thy smile be e'er denied us
The livelong day.
3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
And when we die,
May we in Thy mighty keeping
All peaceful lie;
When the last dread call shall wake us,
Do not Thou, our God, forsake us,
But to reign in glory take us
With Thee on high.
Amen. Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS
God, that madest earth and heaven
All praise to thee, my God, this night
Author: Bishop Thomas Ken (1637-1711) Hymnal: The Hymnal #42 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Times of Worship Evening Lyrics: 1 All praise to Thee, my God, this night,
For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, O keep me, King of kings,
Beneath Thine own almighty wings.
2 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
The ill that I this day have done,
That with the world, myself, and Thee,
I, ere I sleep, 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 awful day.
4 O may my soul on Thee repose,
And with sweet sleep mine eyelids close;
Sleep that may me more vigorous make
To serve my God when I awake.
5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Amen. Tune Title: TALLIS' CANON
All praise to thee, my God, this night
At even, when the sun was set
Author: Rev. Henry Twells Hymnal: The Hymnal #43 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Times of Worship Evening 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 power;
No word from Thee can fruitless fall:
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all.
Amen. Tune Title: ANGELUS
At even, when the sun was set
The day Thou gavest, Lord is ended
Author: Rev. John Ellerton Hymnal: The Hymnal #45 (1950) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Times of Worship Evening Lyrics: 1 The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended,
The darkness falls at Thy behest;
To Thee our morning hymns ascended,
Thy praise shall hallow now our rest.
2 We thank Thee that Thy Church unsleeping,
While earth rolls onward into light,
Through all the world her watch is keeping,
And rests not now by day or night.
3 As o'er each continent and island
The dawn leads on another day,
The voice of prayer is never silent,
Nor dies the strain of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
Our brethren 'neath the western sky,
And hour by hour fresh lips are making
Thy wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, Lord; Thy throne shall never,
Like earth's proud empires, pass away;
Thy Kingdom stands, and grows forever
Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway.
Amen. Tune Title: ST. CLEMENT
The day Thou gavest, Lord is ended
