When Morning Gilds the Skies

Author: Edward Caswall Hymnal: HFLC1974 #550 (1974) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking cries: May Jesus Christ be praised! Alike at work and prayer To Jesus I repair: May Jesus Christ be praised! 2 The night becomes as day When from the heart we say: May Jesus Christ be praised! The pow'rs of darkness fear When this sweet chant they hear: May Jesus Christ be praised! 3 Sing, suns and stars of space, Sing, ye that see His face, Sing, Jesus Christ be praised! Let all the earth around Ring joyous with the sound: May Jesus Christ be praised! 4 Be this while life is mine My canticle divine: May Jesus Christ be praised! Be this th'eternal song, Through all the ages long, May Jesus Christ be praised! Amen. Topics: Praise of Christ Scripture: Psalm 5:3 Languages: English Tune Title: LAUDES DOMINI

Abide with Me: Fast Falls the Eventide

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: HFLC1974 #554 (1974) Meter: 10.10.10.10 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, Lord, 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 the cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies: Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen. Topics: Evening hymns; Fellowship with God; God the Father Faithfulness Scripture: Luke 24:29 Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE
