Hymn 52
Now the Day Is Over
Verse 1
Now the day is over;
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.
Verse 2
Father, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose;
With your tenderest blessing
May our eyelids close.
Calm and sweet repose;
With your tenderest blessing
May our eyelids close.
Verse 3
Through the long night-watches,
May your angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching round my bed.
May your angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching round my bed.
