Lyrics

Verse 1

The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended; the darkness falls at Thy behest; to Thee our morning hymns ascended; Thy praise shall hallow now our rest.

Verse 2

We thank Thee that Thy church, unsleeping while earth rolls onward into light, through all the world her watch is keeping, and rests not now by day or night.

Verse 3

As o'er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day, the voice of prayer is never silent, nor die the strains of praise away.

Verse 4

So be it, Lord; Thy throne shall never, like earth's proud empires, pass away. Thy kingdom stands, and grows forever, till all Thy creatures own Thy sway.

The day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended | Hymnal
