Now all the woods are sleeping

Author: Gerhardt Hymnal: Chorale Book for England, The #169 (1863) Hymnal Title: Chorale Book for England, The Lyrics: Now all the woods are sleeping, And night and stillness creeping O'er city, man, and beast; But thou, my heart, awake thee, To pray'r awhile betake thee, And praise thy Maker ere thou rest. O Sun, where art thou vanish'd? The Night thy reign hath banish'd, Thy ancient foe, the Night. Farewell, a brighter glory My Jesus sheddeth o'er me, All clear within me shines His light. The last faint beam is going, The golden stars are glowing In yonder dark-blue deep; And such the glory given When called of God to heaven, On earth no more we pine and weep. The body hastes to slumber, These garments now but cumber, And as I lay them by I ponder how the spirit Puts off the flesh t' inherit A shining robe with Christ on high. Now thought and labour ceases, For Night the tired releases And bids sweet rest begin: My heart, there comes a morrow Shall set thee free from sorrow, And all the dreary toil of sin. Ye aching limbs! now rest you, For toil hath sore oppress'd you, Lie down, my weary head: A sleep shall once o'ertake you From which earth ne'er shall wake you, Within a narrower, colder bed. My heavy eyes are closing; When I lie deep reposing, Soul, body, where are ye? To belpless sleep I yield them, Oh let Thy mercy shield them, Thou sleepless Eye, their guardian be! My Jesus, stay Thou by me, And let no foe come nigh me, Safe shelter'd by Thy wing; But would the foe alarm me, Oh let him never harm me, But still Thine angels round me sing! My loved ones, rest securely, From every peril surely Our God will guard your heads; And happy slumbers send you, And bid His hosts attend you, And golden-arm'd watch o'er your beds.

Now all the woods are sleeping

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #310 (1880) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Now all the woods are sleeping, And night and stillness creeping O’er city, man, and beast; But thou, my heart, awake thee, To prayer awhile betake thee, And praise Thy Maker ere thou rest. 2 O sun! where art thou vanished? The night thy light hath banished-- The ancient foe, the night; God then for now appeareth Another Sun, and cheereth My heart--'tis Jesus Christ, my Light! 3 The last faint beam is going, The golden stars are glowing In yonder dark-blue deep; Such is the glory given, When called of God to heaven, On earth no more we pine and weep. 4 To rest the body hasteth, Itself of clothes divesteth, Type of mortality! I'll put it off, and o'er me Christ throw the robe of glory, And blissful immortality! 5 Head, hands, and feet so tired Are glad the day's expired, That work comes to an end; My heart, be filled with gladness That God from all earth's sadness, And from sin's toil relief will send. 6 Ye aching limbs! now rest you, For toil hath sore oppressed you, Lie down, my weary head; A sleep shall once o'ertake you From which earth ne'er shall wake you, Within a cold and narrow bed. 7 Mine eyes scarce ope are keeping, A moment, I'll be sleeping, Soul, body,--fare ye well! In grace Thy care then make them May evil ne'er o'ertake them, thou Eye and Ward of Israel. 8 O Jesus, be my Cover! And both Thy wings spread over Thy child, and shield Thou me! Though Satan would devour me, Let angels ever o'er me Sing, "This child shall uninjured be!" 9 My loved ones, rest securely,-- From every evil surely Our God will guard your heads; And happy slumbers send you, And bid His hosts attend you, And golden-armed watch o'er your beds.
