Good Night

Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: Gospel Melodies and Evangelistic Hymns #238 (1944) First Line: When softly fades the dying day Refrain First Line: Good night, good night, May angels bright Lyrics: 1 When softly fades the dying day, And mortal cares we fold away, Then with the last faint ray of light, All nature seems to say Good night. Refrain: Good night, good night, May angels bright, Their vigils keep till morning light, Good night, good night, Good night, good night. 2 And when the deeper shadows fall, And nature veils as with a pall, Then pray’rs of evening take their flight From lips that softly say Good night. [Refrain] 3 O Father, give us sweet repose From all our earthly cares and woes, And grant that heav’n may greet our sight When we have said our last Good night. [Refrain] Topics: Closing Song Languages: English Tune Title: [When softly fades the dying day]
