How deep Thy counsels, how divine! 4 Then shall I see and hear and know All I desired or wished below; And every power find sweet employ In that eternal world of joy. Amen.

Amen. Tune Title: LUX PRIMA

The shadows of the evening hours

Author: Adelaide A. Procter Hymnal: The Hymnal #36 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Times of Worship 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: 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. 2 The sorrows of Thy servants, Lord, O do not Thou despise, But let the incense of our prayers Before Thy mercy rise. The brightness of the coming night Upon the darkness rolls; With hopes of future glory chase The shadows on our souls. 3 Let peace, O Lord, Thy peace, O God, Upon our souls descend; From midnight fears and perils, Thou Our trembling hearts defend: Give us a respite from our toil, Calm and subdue our woes; Through the long day we labor, Lord, O give us now repose. Amen. Tune Title: ST. LEONARD (HILES)
