While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be Thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow's tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside. 4.

The Day Thou Gavest, Lord, Is Ended

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 287 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 45:22-23 First Line: The day thou gavest, Lord is ended Lyrics: 1 The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended; the darkness falls at thy behest. To thee our morning hymns ascended; thy praise shall hallow now our rest. 2 We thank thee that thy church unsleeping, while earth rolls onward into light, through all the world a watch is keeping and rests not now by day or night. 3 As o’er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day, the voice of prayer is never silent, nor dies the song of praise away. 4 The sun that bids us rest is waking thy children ‘neath the western sky, and hour by hour fresh lips are making thy wondrous doings heard on high. 5 So be it, Lord; thy throne shall never, like earth's proud empires, pass away; thy kingdom stands, and grows forever until there dawns thy glorious day.
