Saviour abide with us!
Hymnal: VoP1883 #20 (1883) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Saviour, abide with us!
The day is now far gone:
We would obtain a blessing thus
By coming to Thy throne.
2. We have not reached that land,
That happy land, as yet,
Where holy Angels round Thee stand,
Whose sun can never set.
3. Our sun is sinking now;
Our day is almost o'er;
O Sun of Righteousness, do Thou
Shine on us evermore.
Amen.

Saviour abide with us!
Now the day is over
Hymnal: VoP1883 #21 (1883) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Lyrics: 1 Now the day is over,
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.
2 Now the darkness gathers,
Stars begin to peep,
Birds, and beasts, and flowers
Soon will be asleep.
3 Jesus, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose,
With Thy tenderest blessing
May our eyelids close.
4 Through the long night watches
May Thine Angels spread
Their white wings above me,
Watching round my bed.
5 When the morning wakens,
Then may I arise
Pure and fresh and sinless
In Thy holy eyes.
6 Glory to the Father,
Glory to the Son,
And to Thee, blest Spirit,
Whilst all ages run.
Amen. Topics: Evening; Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: EUDOXIA
Now the day is over
Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me
Hymnal: VoP1883 #22 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me;
Bless Thy little lamb tonight;
Thro' the darkness be Thou near me:
Keep me safe till morning light.
2 All this day Thy hand has led me,
And I thank Thee for Thy care;
Thou hast warmed me, clothed and fed me,
Listen to my evening prayer.
3 Let my sins be all forgiven;
Bless the friends I love so well;
Take us all at last to heaven,
Happy there with Thee to dwell.
Amen. Topics: Evening; Hymns for Little Children Languages: English Tune Title: TENDER SHEPHERD
Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me
The hours of day are over
Hymnal: VoP1883 #23 (1883) Lyrics: 1 The hours of day are over,
The evening calls us home;
Once more to Thee, O Father,
With thankful hearts we come.
2 For all Thy countless blessings
We praise Thy holy Name,
And own Thy love unchanging
Through days and years the same.
3 For all the dear affection
Of parents, brothers, friends,
To Him our thanks we render
Who these and all things sends.
4 But these, O Lord, can show us
Thy goodness but in part;
Thy love would lead us onward
To know Thee as Thou art;
5 The Teacher ever present,
The Friend for ever nigh,
The Home prepared by Jesus
For us above the sky.
6 Lord, gather all Thy children
To meet Thee there at last,
When earthly tasks are ended,
And earthly days are past.
7 With all our dear ones round us
In that eternal Home,
Where death no more shall part us,
And night shall never come.
Amen.

The hours of day are over
This is the day of light
Hymnal: VoP1883 #24 (1883) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 This is the day of light;
Let there be light today;
O Day Spring, rise upon our night,
And chase its gloom away.
2 This is the day of rest:
Our failing strength renew
On weary brain and troubled breast
Shed Thou Thy freshening dew.
3 This is the day of peace:
Thy peace our spirits fill;
Bid Thou the blasts of discord cease,
The waves of strife be still.
4 This is the day of prayer:
Let earth to heaven draw near:
Lift up our hearts to seek Thee there;
Come down to meet us here.
5 This is the first of days:
Send forth Thy quickening breath,
And wake dead souls to love and praise,
O Vanquisher of death!
Amen. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: SWABIA
This is the day of light
Again the morn of gladness
Hymnal: VoP1883 #25 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Again the morn of gladness,
The morn of light is heare;
And eath itslef looks fairer,
And heav'n itself more near:
The bells, like angel voices,
Speak peace to every breast,
And all the land lies quiet
To keep the day of rest.
Chorus:
Glory be to Jesus,
Let all the children say;
He arose again, He rose again,
On this glad day!
2 Again, O loving Saviour,
The children of Thy grace
Prepare themselves to seek Thee
Within Thy chosen place.
Our song shall rise to greet Thee,
If Thou our hearts wilt raise;
If Thou our lips wilt open
Our mouth shall shew Thy praise. [Chorus]
3 The shining choir of angels
That rest not day or night,
The crowned and palm-decked martyrs,
The saints arrayed in white,
The happy lambs of Jesus
In pastures fair above,--
These all adore and praise Him
Whom we too praise and love. [Chorus]
4 The Church on earth rejoices
To join with these today;
In every tongue and nation
She calls her sons to pray:
Across the Northern snow-fields,
Beneath the Indian palms,
She makes the same "pure offering,"
And sings the same sweet psalms.
Glory be to Jesus, &c.
5 Toll out, sweet bells, His praises!
Sing, children, sing His Name!
Still louder and still farther
His mighty deeds proclaim!
Till all whom He redeemed
Shall own Him Lord and King,
Till every knee shall worship,
And every tongue shall sing! [Chorus]
Amen.

Again the morn of gladness
O Day of rest and gladness
Hymnal: VoP1883 #26 (1883) 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 join'd 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 that 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 voices upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One.
Amen. Topics: The Lord's Day; Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: ROTTERDAM
O Day of rest and gladness
Happy, happy Sunday!
Hymnal: VoP1883 #27 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Happy, happy Sunday!
Day of rest and peace,
Which from earthly labours
Bringeth us release;
Day which tells of Jesus
Rising from the dead,
Day on which His members
With His grace are fed!
2 Jewish bondage ended,
Jewish rites surpassed,
On this day we worship
Christ, the First and Last;
Here in Christian freedom,
Gladly we may sing
Hymns of praise and honour
To our loving King.
3 Every week, in Jesus,
Thus do we begin,
Who redeemed and called us,
Saving us from sin;
And our week-day labours
Are for ever blest,
By the gracious worship
Of the Sunday Rest. AMEN. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: BARRY
Happy, happy Sunday!
Alleluia! Fairest morning!
Hymnal: VoP1883 #28 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! Fairest morning!
Fairer than our words can say!
Down we lay the heavy burden
Of life's toil and care to-day;
While this morn of joy and love
Brings fresh vigour from above.
2 Sunday, full of holy glory!
Sweetest rest-day of the soul!
Light upon a world of darkness
From thy blessed moments roll!
Holy, happy, heavenly day,
Thou canst charm our grief away.
3 In the gladness of His worship
We will seek our joy to-day;
It is there we learn the fulness
Of the grace for which we pray,
When the word of life is given,
Like the Saviour's voice from heaven.
4 Let the day with Thee be ended,
As with Thee it has begun;
And Thy blessing, Lord, be granted,
Till earth's days and weeks are done;
That at last Thy servants may
Keep eternal Sabbath-day.
Amen. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: GRANGE
Alleluia! Fairest morning!
We come, Lord, to Thy feet
Hymnal: VoP1883 #29 (1883) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 We come, Lord, to Thy feet,
On this Thy holy day;
O come to us, while here we meet,
To learn and praise and pray.
2 Our many sins forgive;
The Holy Spirit send;
And teach us to begin to live
The life that knows no end.
3 Lord, fill our hearts with love;
Our teachers' labours own:
That we and they may meet above,
To sing before Thy throne.
Amen. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: ABELARD
We come, Lord, to Thy feet
