Watchman, Tell Us of the Night
Author: John Bowring Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #168 (1985) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night,
what its signs of promise are.
Trav'ler, o'er yon mountain's height
see that glory-beaming star.
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
aught of joy or hope foretell?
Trav'ler, yes, it brings the day,
promised day of Israel.
2 Watchman, tell us of the night,
higher yet that star ascends.
Trav'ler, blessedness and light,
peace and truth its course portends.
Watchman, will its beams alone
gild the spot that gave them birth?
Trav'ler, ages are its own;
see, it bursts o'er all the earth.
3 Watchman, tell us of the night,
for the morning seems to dawn.
Trav'ler, darkness takes its flight;
doubt and terror are withdrawn.
Watchman, let thy wand'rings cease;
hie thee to thy quiet home.
Trav'ler, lo! the Prince of Peace,
lo! the Son of God is come!

Tell Us of the Night
Across the sky the shades of night
Author: Rev. James Hamilton Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #202 (1894) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Across the sky the shades of night
This Winter's eve are fleeting:
We deck Thine altar, Lord, with light,
In solemn worship meeting:
And as the year's last hours go by,
We lift to Thee our earnest cry.
Once more Thy love entreating.
2 Before the cross, subdued we bow,
To Thee our prayers addressing;
Recounting all Thy mercies now,
And all our sins confessing;
Beseeching Thee, this coming year,
To hold us in Thy faith and fear,
And crown us with Thy blessing.
3 And, while we kneel, we lift our eyes
To dear ones gone before us,
Safe housed with Thee in Paradise,
Whose peace descendeth o'er us:
And beg of Thee, when life is past,
To re-unite us all, at last,
And to our loss restore us.
4 We gather up, in this brief hour,
The memory of Thy mercies:
Thy wondrous goodness, love, and power,
Our grateful song rehearses:
For Thou hast been our strength and stay,
In many a dark and dreary day
Of sorrow and reverses.
5 In many an hour, when fear and dread,
Like evil spells have bound us,
And clouds were gathering overhead,
Thy providence hath found us:
In many a night when waves run high,
Thy gracious presence drawing nigh
Hath made all calm around us.
6 Then, O Great God, in years to come,
Whatever fate betide us,
Right onward through our journey home
Be Thou at hand to guide us:
Nor leave us till, at close of life,
Safe from all perils, toil, and strife,
Heaven shall unfold and hide us.
Amen.
