The duteous day now closeth

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676 Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 45 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The duteous day now closeth, each flower and tree reposeth, shade creeps o’er wild and wood: let us, as night is falling, on God our Maker calling, give thanks to him, the giver good. 2 Now all the heavenly splendour breaks forth in starlight tender from myriad worlds unknown; and man, the marvel seeing, forgets his selfish being, for joy of beauty not his own. 3 His care he drowneth yonder, lost in the abyss of wonder; to heaven his soul doth steal; this life he disesteemeth, the day it is that dreameth, that doth from truth his vision seal. 4 Awhile his mortal blindness may miss God’s loving-kindness, and grope in faithless strife: but when life’s day is over shall death’s fair night discover the fields of everlasting life.

Come, see the place where Jesus lay

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 59 hymnals Lyrics: Come, see the place where Jesus lay, And hear angelic watchers say, "He lives, who once was slain: Why seek the living midst the dead? Remember how the Savior said That he would rise again." O joyful sound! O glorious hour, When by his own Almighty power He rose and left the grave! Now let our songs his triumph tell, Who burst the bands of death and hell, And ever lives to save. The First-begotten of the dead, For us he rose, our glorious Head, Immortal life to bring; What though the saints like him shall die, They share their Leader's victory, And triumph with their King. No more they tremble at the grave, For Jesus will their spirits save, And raise their slumbering dust: O risen Lord, in thee we live, To thee our ransomed souls we give, To thee our bodies trust. Amen. Topics: Easter Day Used With Tune: INNSBRUCK

Now Rest Beneath Night's Shadows

Author: Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now rest beneath night's shadows The woodlands, fields and meadows, The world in slumber lies; But thou, my soul, awake thee, To song and prayer betake thee, Let praise to thy Creator rise. 2 The radiant sun hath vanished, Its golden rays are banished By night, the foe of day; But Christ, the Sun of gladness, Dispelling all my sadness, Within my heart holds constant sway. 3 The rule of day is over, And shining jewels cover The sky above so blue. Thus I shall shine in heaven, Where crowns of gold are given To all who faithful prove and true. 4 My body lies divested Of garments that have rested Upon this form of clay. But I in rapture ponder How Christ shall clothe me yonder With glory that endures for aye. 5 Lord Jesus, who dost love me, Thy pinions spread above me, And shield me well from harm. Let angel guards attend me And from the foe defend me, That I may rest without alarm. 6 My loved ones, rest securely, For God will keep you surely From pain and perils sore. Sweet slumbers may He send you, And may His hosts defend you With golden weapons evermore. Topics: Evening Used With Tune: INNSPRUCK Text Sources: Tr. Composite
