Glory to Thee, my God, this night
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #519 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Evening Hymns in general; Worship Family Lyrics: 1 Glory to Thee, my God, this night,
For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, oh, keep me, King of kings,
Under Thine own almighty wings.
2 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
The ills 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
With joy behold the judgement-day.
4 Lord, let my soul for ever share
The bliss of Thy paternal care;
'Tis heaven on earth, 'tis heaven above,
To see Thy face and sing Thy love.
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. Languages: English
Glory to Thee, my God, this night
Saviour, breathe an ev'ning blessing
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #520 (1870) Topics: Evening Hymns in general; Worship Family Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breathe an ev'ning 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 past 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,
Watchest 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
Saviour, breathe an ev'ning blessing
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #521 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Evening Hymns in general; Worship Family Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on;
Thus far His power prolongs my days:
And ev'ry ev'ning shall make known
Some fresh memorial of His grace.
2 Much of my time has run to waste,
And I, perhaps, am near my home;
But He forgives my follies past,
And strength supplies for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head:
His ever-watchful eye will keep
Its constant guard around my bed.
4 Faith in His name forbids my fear;
Oh, may Thy presence ne’er depart!
And in the morning may I bear
Thy loving-kindness on my heart! Languages: English

The ev'ning shades appear,
Oh, may I ever keep in mind
The night of death draws near.
2 Lord, keep me safe this night,
Secure from all my fears;
May angels guard me while I sleep,
Till morning light appears.
3 And when I early rise,
To view th'unwearied sun,
May I set out to win the prize,
And after glory run.
4 That when my days are past,
And I from time remove,
Lord, I may in Thy bosom rest,
The bosom of Thy love. Languages: English

Our ev'ning sacrifice.

Awake, our hearts and tongue:
Sleep not when mercies loudly call,
Break forth into a song.
3 Minutes and mercies multiplied
Have made up all this day;
Minutes came quick, but mercies were
More fleet and free than they.

Do a new song require;
Till we shall praise Thee as we would,
Accept our heart's desire.

Thou Shepherd and Guardian of Thine,
My all to Thy covenant care
I, sleeping or waking, resign.
2 If Thou art my Shield and my Sun,
The night is no darkness to me;
And fast as my minutes roll on,
They bring me but nearer to Thee.
3 A sovereign Protector I have,
Unseen, yet forever at hand;
Unchangeably faithful to save,
Almighty to rule and command.
4 His smiles and His comforts abound,
His grace, as the dew, shall descend;
And walls of salvation surround
The soul He delights to defend. Languages: English

Like holy incense rise!
Assist the off'rings of my tongue
To reach the lofty skies.
2 Through all the dangers of the day
Thy hand was still my guard,
And still to drive my wants away
Thy mercies stood prepared.
3 Perpetual blessings from above
Encompass'd me around,
But, oh! how few returns of love
Hath my Creator found.
4 What have I, done form Him that died
To save my wretched soul?
How are my follies multiplied,
Fast as my minutes roll!
5 Lord, with this guilty heart of mine
To Thy dear cross I flee,
And to Thy grace my soul resign,
To be renew'd by Thee. Languages: English

Abide with us, and rest;
Our hearts' desires are fully bent
On making Thee our guest.

That happy land, as yet,
Where holy angels round Thee stand,
Whose sun can never set.
3 Our sun is sinking now;
Our day is almost o'er;
O Sun of Righteousness, do Thou
Shine on us evermore. Languages: English
The day, O Lord, is spent
Hear my prayer, O Heavenly Father
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #529 (1870) Topics: Evening Hymns in general; Worship Family Lyrics: 1 Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father,
Ere I lay me down to sleep;
Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.
2 Great my sins are, but Thy mercy
Far outweighs them ev'ry one;
Down before Thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in Thy help alone.
3 Keep me, through this night of peril,
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
When my pilgrimage is made!
4 None shall measure out Thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which Thy holy Son hath wrought.
5 Pardon all my past transgressions;
Give me strength for days to come;,
Guide and guard me with Thy blessing,
Till Thine angels bid me home! Languages: English

It is not night if Thou be near;
Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise,
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes.
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought--how sweet to rest
Forever on my Saviour's breast.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
4 Be near to bless me when I wake
Ere through the world our way I take;
Abide with me till in Thy love
I lose myself in heaven above. Languages: English
Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear
