51- Day Is Dying in the West
Worship: Evening Worship
1
- Day is dying in the west;
- Heaven is touching earth with rest;
- Wait and worship while the night
- Sets the evening lamps alight
- Through all the sky.
Refrain
- Holy, holy, holy,
- Lord God of Hosts!
- Heaven and earth are full of Thee;
- Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
- O Lord most high!
2
- Lord of life, beneath the dome
- Of the universe, Thy home,
- Gather us who seek Thy face
- To the fold of Thy embrace,
- For Thou art nigh.
3
- While the deepening shadows fall,
- Heart of love enfolding all,
- Thro' the glory and the grace
- Of the stars that veil Thy face,
- Our hearts ascend.
4
- When forever from our sight
- Pass the stars, the day, the night,
- Lord of angels, on our eyes
- Let eternal morning rise
- And shadows end.
