The shadows of the evening hours

Author: A. A. Procter Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #15 (1894) Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Lyrics: 1 The shadows of the evening hours Fall from the darkening sky; Upon the fragrance of the flowers The dews of evening lie. 2 Before Thy throne, O Lord of heaven, We kneel at close of day; Look on Thy children from on high, And hear us while we pray. 3 The sorrows of Thy servants, Lord, Oh, do not Thou despise, But let the incense of our prayers Before Thy mercy rise. 4 The brightness of the coming night Upon the darkness rolls; With hopes of future glory chase The shadows on our souls. 5 Slowly the rays of daylight fade: So fade within our heart The hopes of earthly love and joy, That one by one depart. 6 Slowly the bright stars, one by one, Within the heavens shine: Give us, O Lord, fresh hopes in heaven, And trust in things divine. 7 Let peace, O Lord, Thy peace, O God, Upon our souls descend; From midnight fears, and perils, Thou Our trembling hearts defend: 8 Give us a respite from our toil; Calm and subdue our woes; Through the long day we labor, Lord, Oh, give us now repose. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [The shadows of the evening hours]

Let Evening Twilight Turn to Dawn

Author: T. Vincent Tymms Hymnal: The Praise Book #133 (1906) Topics: Evening Lyrics: 1 Let evening twilight turn to dawn, For all who love Thee, Saviour dear, Like twain of old, to whom, we read,— “Jesus Himself drew near.” 2 Yet we remember how ‘tis write, That while He sought their doubt to clear, Their eyes were held, and told them not, Jesus Himself drew near. 3 With burning hearts they heard His words, Unfolding how each ancient see Said, “Christ must suffer.” So in Light, Jesus Himself drew near. 4 Drew near, was near, yet still seemed far, While sitting down their meal to cheer! Then closer still, in vanished Form, Jesus Himself drew near. 5 Not now a figure by their side, But in their hearts, Indweller dear! His present Spirit bade them say, Jesus Himself is here. 6 So dwell in us by faith, dear Lord! In us by grace Thy throne uprear, Then of our darkest hours we’ll say, Jesus Himself drew near. 7 Be near us, Lord, till sense no more Divides from Him our souls revere: Be with us, Lord, till thro’ the tomb, To Jesus we draw near.
