Hymns of the Kingdom of God

one by one To shed their light; With Thee there is no dark-ness, Lord;

The night is come, wherein at last we rest, God or-der this and all things for the best!

William F. Sherwin, 1877

Day is dying in the west; Heav'n is touch-ing earth with rest; Wait and

wor-ship while the night Sets her eve-ning lamps a-light Thro' all the

Heav'n and earth are

full of Thee; Heav'n and earth are praising Thee, O Lord Most High!

DAY is dying in the west;

Heaven is touching earth with rest;
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight

Through all the sky.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee;
Heaven 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.

3 While the deepening shadows fall,
Heart of love, enfolding all,
Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend.

4 When for ever from our sight
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,

And shadows end.

Mary A. Lathbury, 1877
