Text 1Softly now the light of dayFades upon out sight away:Free from care, from labor free,Lord, we would commune with Thee. 2Thou, whose all-pervading eyeNought escapes, without, within,Pardon each infirmity,Open fault, and secret sin. 3Soon from us the light of dayShall forever pass away;Then, from sin and sorrow free,Take us, Lord, to dwell with Thee.…
Text 1Savior, breathe an evening blessing,Ere repose our spirits seal;Sin and want we come confessing;Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal. 2Though the night be dark and dreary,Darkness cannot hide from Thee;Thou art He who, never weary,Watchest where Thy people be. 3Though destruction walk around us.Though the arrow past us fly,Angel guards from Thee Surround…
