Softly Now the Light of Day

Author: Geo. W. Doane Hymnal: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old #103 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away; Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with Thee. 2 Thou, whose all pervading eye Naught escapes, without, within, Pardon each infirmity, Open fault and secret sin. 3 Soon for me the light of day Shall forever pass away; Then, from sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with Thee. 4 Thou who, sinless, yet hast known All of man's infirmity; Then, from Thine eternal throne, Jesus, look with pitying eye.
