Author: Rev. Allen Eastman Cross Hymnal: The Hymnal #494 (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, kneel beside me
In the dawn of day;
Thine is prayer eternal—
Teach me how to pray!
2 Master, work beside me
In the shining sun;
Gently guide Thy servant
Till the work be done.
3 Saviour, watch beside me
In the closing light;
Lo, the evening cometh—
Watch with me this night!
4 Birds are winging homeward,
Sun and shadow cease;
Saviour, take my spirit
To Thy perfect peace.
Amen. Topics: Christ Presence, His Living; Love and Communion; Orisons; Prayer and Intercession Tune Title: EUDOXIA
