Now from the altar of our hearts

Mason Hymnal: HRGC1892 #20 (1894) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Now from the altar of our hearts Let flames of love arise; Assist us, Lord, to offer up Our evening sacrifice. 2 Minutes and mercies multiplied Have made up all this day; Minutes came quick, but mercies were More swift, more free than they. 3 New times, new favors, and new joys Do a new song require; Till we shall praise Thee as we would, Accept our hearts' desires.

Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go

Author: Rev. F. W. Faber Hymnal: HRGC1892 #22a (1894) Lyrics: 1 Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go: Thy word into our minds instil; And make our lukewarm hearts to glow With lowly love and fervent will. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesu, be our light. 2 The day is gone, its hours have run, And Thou hast taken count of all, The scanty triumphs grace hath won, The broken vow, the frequent fall. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesu, be our light. 3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways True absolution and release; And bless us, more than in past days, With purity and inward peace. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesu, be our light. 4 For all we love, the poor, the sad, The sinful, unto Thee we call; Oh, let Thy mercy make us glad; Thou art our Saviour, and our all. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesu, be our light. 5 Sweet Saviour, bless us; night is come; Through night and darkness near us be; Good angels watch about our home, And we are one day nearer Thee. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesu, be our light. Amen. Topics: Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: [Sweet Saviour, bless us ere we go]

Our day of praise is done

Author: Rev. J. Ellerton Hymnal: HRGC1892 #23a (1894) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Our day of praise is done; The evening shadows fall; But pass not from us with the sun, True Light that lightenest all. 2 Around the throne on high, Where night can never be, The white-robed harpers of the sky Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee. 3 Too faint our anthems here; Too soon of praise we tire; But oh, the strains how full and clear Of that eternal choir! 4 Yet, Lord, to Thy dear will If Thou attune the heart, We in Thine angel's music still May bear our lower part. 5 'Tis Thine each soul to calm, Each wayward thought reclaim, And make our life a daily psalm Of glory to Thy name. 6 A little while, and then Shall come the glorious end; And songs of angels and of men In perfect praise shall blend. Amen. Topics: Praise; Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: [Our day of praise is done]

O day of rest and gladness

Author: Bp. Chr. Wordsworth Hymnal: HRGC1892 #24a (1894) Meter: 7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness, O day of joy and light, O balm of care and sadness, Most beautiful, most bright; On thee, the high and lowly, Through ages joined in tune, Sing, Holy, Holy, Holy, To the great God Triune. 2 On thee, at the creation, The light first had its birth; On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depths of earth; On thee our Lord victorious The Spirit sent from heaven; And thus on thee most glorious A triple light was given. 3 Thou art a port protected From storms which round us rise; A garden intersected With streams of Paradise; Thou art a cooling fountain In life's dry dreary sand; From thee, like Pisgah's mountain, We view our promised land. 4 To-day on weary nations The heavenly manna falls; To holy convocations The silver trumpet calls, Where Gospel light is glowing With pure and radiant beams, And living water flowing With soul-refreshing streams. 5 New graces ever gaining From this our day of rest, We reach the Rest remaining To spirits of the blest. To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father, and to Son; The church her voice upraises To Thee, blest Three in One. Amen. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: [O day of rest and gladness]
