Benediction
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #70 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The peace which God alone reveals Lyrics: 1 The peace which God alone reveals,
And by his word of grace imparts,
Which only the believer feels,
Direct, and keep, and cheer our hearts!
2 And may the holy Three in One,
The Father, Word, and Comforter,
Pour an abundant blessing down
On every soul assembled here!
3 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow:
Praise him, all creatures here below;
Praise him above, ye heavenly host!
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Evening
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #71 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Thus far the Lord has lead me on Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on;
Thus far his power prolongs my days;
And every evening shall make known
Some fresh memorial of his grace.
2 Much of my time has run to waste,
And I, perhaps, am near my home,
But he forgives my follies past,
And gives me strength for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed. Languages: English Tune Title: HEBRON

"Abide with us"
Author: John M. Neale Hymnal: Laudes Domini #75 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The day, O Lord, is spent Lyrics: 1 The day, O Lord, is spent;
Abide with us, and rest;
Our hearts' desires are fully bent
On making thee our guest.
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!
4 The grace of Christ our Lord,
The Father's boundless love,
The Spirit's blest communion, too,
Be with us from above. Languages: English Tune Title: NEALE

Evening
Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #77 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The swift declining day Lyrics: 1 The swift declining day,
How fast its moments fly!
While evening's broad and gloomy shade
Gains on the western sky.
2 Ye mortals, mark its pace,
And use the hours of light;
And know, its Maker can command
At once eternal night.
3 Give glory to the Lord,
Who rules the whirling sphere;
Submissive at his footstool bow,
And seek salvation there.
4 Then shall new lustre break
Through death's impending gloom,
And lead you to unchanging light,
In your celestial home. Languages: English

Home Hymn
Author: John Leland Hymnal: Laudes Domini #78 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: The day is past and gone Lyrics: 1 The day is past and gone,
The evening shades appear;
Oh, may we all remember well
The night of death draws near!
2 We lay our garments by,
Upon our beds to rest;
So death will soon disrobe us all
Of what we here possessed.
3 Lord, keep us safe this night,
Secure from all our fears;
May angels guard us while we sleep,
Till morning light appears.
4 And when we early rise,
And view the unwearied sun,
May we set out to win the prize,
And after glory run.
5 And when our days are past,
And we from time remove,
Oh, may we in thy bosom rest,
The bosom of thy love! Languages: English Tune Title: EVENING

Evening of the Day
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #79 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Abide with me: fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!
2 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as thou dwell'st with thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free,
Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour;
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
Thro' cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me!

"A word of Blessing"
Author: Richard Massie Hymnal: Laudes Domini #81 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: O Lord, who by thy presence hast made light Lyrics: 1 O Lord, who by thy presence hast made light
The heat and burden of the toilsome day,
Be with us also in the silent night,
Be with us when the daylight fades away.
2 Oh, speak a word of blessing, gracious Lord!
Thy blessing is endued with soothing power;
On human hearts worn out with toil, thy word
Falls soft and gentle as the evening shower.
3 Come then, O Lord, and deign to be our guest,
After the day's confusion, toil, and din;
Oh, come to bring us peace, and joy, and rest,
To give salvation, and to pardon sin!
4 Bind up the wounds, assuage the aching smart
Left in each bosom from the day just past,
And let us on a Father's loving heart
Forget our griefs, and find sweet rest at last. Languages: English

"Go in peace"
Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #82 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise Lyrics: 1 Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise
With one accord our parting hymn of praise;
We rise to bless thee ere our worship cease,
And now, departing, wait thy word of peace.
2 Grant us thy peace upon our homeward way;
With thee began, with thee shall end the day;
Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon thy name.
3 Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night;
Turn thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to thee.
4 Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife;
Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace.

"Go in peace"
"Trust, strength, calmness"
Author: Samuel Johnson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #83 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Father! in thy mysterious presence kneeling Lyrics: 1 Father! in thy mysterious presence kneeling,
Fain would our souls feel all thy kindling love;
For we are weak, and need some deep revealing
Of trust, and strength, and calmness from above.
2 Lord! we have wandered forth through doubt and sorrow,
And thou hast made each step an onward one;
And we will ever trust each unknown morrow;
Thou wilt sustain us till its work is done.
3 In the heart's depths, a peace serene and holy
Abides; and, when pain seems to have her will,
Or we despair, oh! may that peace rise slowly,
Stronger than agony, and we be still.
4 Now, Father! now in thy dear presence kneeling,
Our spirits yearn to feel thy kindling love;
Now make us strong; we need thy deep revealing
Of trust, and strength, and calmness from above. Languages: English Tune Title: HENLEY

Evening
Author: G. W. Doane Hymnal: Laudes Domini #84 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Softly now the light of day Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day
Fades upon my sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, I would commune with thee.
2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye
Naught escapes without, within,
Pardon each infirmity,
Open fault, and secret sin.
3 Soon, for me, the light of day
Shall for ever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take me, Lord, to dwell with thee.
4 Thou who, sinless, yet hast known
All of man's infirmity;
Then from thine eternal throne,
Jesus, look with pitying eye. Languages: English Tune Title: SEYMOUR
