Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh, Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky.
2. Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose ; With Thy tenderest blessing May our eyelids close.
3. Through the long night-watches May Thine angels spread Their white wings above us, Watching round each bed.
4. When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure, and fresh, and sinless In Thy holy eyes.
5. Glory to the Father, Glory to the Son, And to Thee, blest Spirit, Whilst all ages run.
