Inspirer and Hearer of prayer
Author: Augustus M. Toplady Hymnal: BWHT1899 #32 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8. Lyrics: 1 Inspirer and Hearer of prayer,
Thou Shepherd and Guardian of Thine,
My all to Thy covenant care
I, sleeping or waking, resign.
2 If Thou art my Shield and my Sun,
The night is no darkness to me;
And fast as my minutes roll on,
They bring me but nearer to Thee.
3 A sovereign Protector I have,
Unseen, yet forever at hand;
Unchangeably faithful to save,
Almighty to rule and command.
4 His smiles and His comforts abound,
His grace, as the dew, shall descend;
And walls of salvation surround
The soul He delights to defend.
Amen. Topics: Covenant; Evening; God Defender; God Faithfulness of; God Our Guardian Languages: English Tune Title: DEVOTION
Inspirer and Hearer of prayer
Hear my pray'r, O heavenly Father
Author: Harriet Parr Hymnal: BWHT1899 #33 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Hear my pray'r, O heavenly Father,
Ere we lay me down to sleep;
Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.
2 Great by sins are, but Thy mercy
Far outweighs them every one;
Down before Thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in Thy help alone.
3 Keep me, through this night of peril,
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
When my pilgrimage is made!
4 None shall measure out Thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which Thy Holy Son hath wrought.
5 Pardon all my past transgressions;
Give me strength for days to come;
Guide and guard me with Thy blessing,
Till Thine angels bid me home!
Amen. Topics: Evening; God Patience of; Mercy of God Languages: English Tune Title: WRAYSBURY
Hear my pray'r, O heavenly Father
Father, in high heaven dwelling
Author: George Rawson Hymnal: BWHT1899 #34 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Father, in high heaven dwelling,
May our evening song be telling
Of Thy mercy large and free:
Through the day Thy love hath fed us,
Through the day Thy care hath led us
With divinest charity.
2 This day’s sins, oh, pardon, Saviour!
Evil thoughts, perverse behavior,
Envy, pride, and vanity;
From all evil us deliver;
Save us now, and save us ever,
O Thou Lamb of Calvary!
3 While the night-dews are distilling,
Holy Ghost, each heart be filling
With Thine own serenity:
Softly let our eyes be closing,
Loving souls on Thee reposing,
Ever blessèd Trinity.
Amen.

Father, in high heaven dwelling
Through the day Thy love has spared us
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: BWHT1899 #35 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Through the day Thy love has spared us;
Now we lay us down to rest,
Through the silent watches guard us,
Let no foe our peace molest;
Jesus! Thou our Guardian be;
Sweet it is to trust in Thee.
2 Pilgrims here on earth, and strangers,
Dwelling in the midst of foes,
Us and ours preserve from dangers;
In Thine arms may we repose,
And when life's short day is past,
Rest with Thee in heaven at last.

Saviour, now the day is ending
Author: Sarah Doudney Hymnal: BWHT1899 #36 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, now the day is ending,
And the shades of evening fall,
Let Thy Holy Dove, descending,
Bring Thy mercy to us all;
Set Thy seal on every heart,
Jesus, bless us ere we part!
2 Bless the gospel message spoken,
In Thine own appointed way;
Give each longing soul a token
Of Thy tender love to-day;
Set Thy seal on every heart;
Jesus, bless us ere we part!
3 Comfort those in pain or sorrow,
Watch each sleeping child of Thine;
Let us all arise to-morrow
Strengthened by Thy grace divine;
Set Thy seal on every heart.
Jesus, bless us ere we part!

Saviour, now the day is ending
Blest day of God, most calm, most bright
Author: John Mason Hymnal: BWHT1899 #37 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Blest day of God, most calm, most bright,
The first and best of days;
The laborer's rest, the saint's delight,
The day of prayer and praise!
2 My Saviour's face made thee to shine,
His rising thee did raise;
This made thee heavenly and divine
Beyond the common days.
3 The first fruits oft a blessing prove
To all the sheaves behind;
And they that do a Sabbath love,
A happy week shall find.
4 This day must I 'fore God appear
For, Lord, the day is Thine;
O let me spend it in Thy fear,
Then shall the day be mine.

Safely through another week

God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest!
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest!
2 While we seek supplies of grace,
Through the dear Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame:
From our worldly cares set free,
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
3 Here we've come, Thy name to praise;
Let us feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
4 May Thy gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
May the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints:
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the church above.
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the church above.

Welcome, sweet day of rest
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: BWHT1899 #39 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Welcome, sweet day of rest,
That saw the Lord arise;
Welcome to this reviving breast
And these rejoicing eyes.
2 The King Himself comes near,
And feasts His saints to-day;
Here may we sit, and see Him here,
And love and praise and pray.
3 One day within the place
Where Christ, my Lord, has been,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Within the tents of sin.
4 My willing soul would stay
In such a frame as this,
Till called to rise and soar away
To everlasting bliss.

Welcome, sweet day of rest
Hallelujah! fairest morning!
Author: Jane L. Borthwick; Jonathan Krause Hymnal: BWHT1899 #40 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Hallelujah! fairest morning!
Fairer than our words can say!
Down we lay the heavy burden
Of our toil and care today;
While this morn of joy and love
Brings fresh vigor from above.
2 Sunday, full of holy glory!
Sweetest rest-day of the soul!
Light upon a world of darkness
From thy blessèd moments roll!
Holy, happy, heavenly day,
Thou canst charm our grief away.
3 In the gladness of God's worship
We will seek our joy to-day:
It is then 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.

Another six days' work is done
Author: Joseph Stennett Hymnal: BWHT1899 #41 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Another six day's work is done,
Another Sabbath is begun;
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest,
Improve the day thy God has blest.
2 Come, bless the Lord, whose love assigns
So sweet a rest to wearied minds;
Provides an antepast of heaven,
And gives this day the food of seven.
3 Oh that our thoughts and thanks may rise
As grateful incense to the skies;
And draw from heaven that sweet repose
Which none but he that feels it knows.
4 With joy God's wondrous works we view
In various scenes, both old and new;
With praise we think on mercies past,
With hope we future pleasures taste.
5 In holy duties let the day,
In holy pleasures pass away:
How sweet a Sabbath thus to spend,
In hope of one that ne'er shall end!
Amen. Topics: Lord's Day Emblem of eternal rest Languages: English Tune Title: EL PARAN
