When Morning Gilds the Skies

Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1873 Hymnal: WASH1957 #140 (1957) Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking cries: May Jesus Christ be praised; Alike at work and prayer To Jesus I repair: May Jesus Christ be praised. 2 Does sadness fill my mind, A solace here I find: May Jesus Christ be praised; Or fades my earthly bliss, My comfort still is this: May Jesus Christ be praised. 3 In heaven's eternal bliss The loveliest strain is this, May Jesus Christ be praised; The powers of darkness fear, When this sweet chant they hear: May Jesus Christ be praised. 4 Be this while life is mine My canticle divine, May Jesus Christ be praised; Be this th'eternal song, Through all the ages long: May Jesus Christ be praised. Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Morning Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: LAUDES DOMINI

Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun

Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Hymnal: WASH1957 #141 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily stage of duty run; Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise To pay thy morning sacrifice. 2 Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart, And with the angels bear thy part, Who all night long unwearied sing High praise to the Eternal King. 3 All praise to Thee, who safe hast kept And hast refreshed me whilst I slept: Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake, I may of endless light partake. 4 Direct, control, suggest, this day, All I design, or do or say; That all my powers, with all their might, In Thy sole glory may unite. Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Morning Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING HYMN

Still, Still with Thee

Author: Harriet Beecher Stowe, 1812-1896 Hymnal: WASH1957 #142 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than the daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with Thee. 2 Alone with Thee, amid the mystic shadows, The solemn hush of nature newly born; Alone with Thee in breathless adoration, In the calm dew and freshness of the morn. 3 When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber, Its closing eye looks up to Thee in prayer; Sweet the repose beneath the wings o’ershading, But sweeter still to wake and find Thee there. 4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning When the soul waketh, and life’s shadows flee; Oh, in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought--I am with Thee. Amen. Topics: Fellowship with God; Worship and Praise Morning Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: CONSOLATION

Softly Now the Light of Day

Author: George W. Doane, 1799-1859 Hymnal: WASH1957 #143 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away; Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with Thee. 2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye Naught escapes, without, within, Pardon each infirmity, Open fault, and secret sin. 3 Soon for me the light of day Shall for ever pass away; Then, from sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with thee. 4 Thou who, sinless, yet hast known All of man's infirmity; Then, from Thine eternal throne, Jesus, look with pitying eye. Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: SEYMOUR

Sun of My Soul

Amen. Topics: Devotional; Inner Life; Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY

Saviour, Breathe an Evening Blessing

Author: James Edmeston, 1791-1867 Hymnal: WASH1957 #145 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breath an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing: Thou can'st save, and Thou canst heal. 2 Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow past us fly; Angel-guards from Thee surround us; We are safe if Thou art nigh. 3 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He who, never weary, Watchest where Thy people be. 4 Should swift death this night o'ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn in heaven awake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom. Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: EVENING PRAYER

God, That Madest Earth and Heaven

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826; Frederick L. Hosmer, 1840-1929; Richard Whateley, 1787-1863 Hymnal: WASH1957 #147 (1957) Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven, Darkness and light; Who the day for toil hast given, For rest the night; May Thine angel guards defend us, Slumber sweet Thy mercy send us; Holy dreams and hopes attend us, This livelong night. 2 When the constant sun returning Unseals our eyes, May we, born anew like morning, To labor rise; Gird us for the task that calls us, Let not ease and self enthrall us, Strong through Thee whate'er befall us, O God most wise! 3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping, And when we die, May we in thy mighty keeping, All peaceful lie; When the last dread trump shall wake us, Do not Thou, O God, forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With Thee on high.

Abide with me

Author: Henry F. Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: WASH1957 #148 (1957) First Line: Abide with me: fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 5 Hold Thou the cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen. Topics: Devotional; Funeral Hymns; Immortality; Inner Life; Old Age; Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

The Shadows of the Evening Hours

Author: Adelaide A. Procter, 1825-1864 Hymnal: WASH1957 #149 (1957) 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 from 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. Topics: Worship and Praise Evening Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: ST. LEONARD
