Representative Text

1. This day Thou gav­est us, O Lord,
Has passed be­yond our sight:
Thy lov­ing care has crowned its hours,
Watch o’er us thro the night.

2. E’en as the twi­light deep­ens here,
’Tis day in dist­ant lands.
Gird all Thy serv­ants there with strength,
With bless­ings fill their hands.

3. While we’re asleep, they la­bor, Lord;
O grant them rich suc­cess,
And peace­ful slum­ber, when we wake
And strive thro’ Thee to bless.

4. At home, abroad, we praise Thee, Lord,
For count­less mer­cies giv’n;
Help us to fol­low in Thy steps
Thro’ earth­ly days to Heav’n.
