Hymn Text
1 Day is dying in the west,
Heav'n is touching earth with rest;
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight Through all the sky.
Refrain:
Holy, holy, holy Lord God of Hosts! Heav'n and earth are full of thee,
Heav'n 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. [Refrain]
3 While the deep'ning shadows fall,
Heart of love, enfold us all;
Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil thy face, Our hearts ascend. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
