1
Day
is dying in the west;
Heav'n
is touching earth with rest;
Wait
and worship while the night
Sets
her evening lamps alight
Through all the sky.
2
Lord
of life, beneath the dome
Of the
universe, Thy home,
Gather
us who seek Thy face
To the
fold of Thy embrace,
For
Thou art nigh. [Chorus]
3
While the deep'ning shadows fall,
Heart
of Love, enfolding all,
Through
the glory and the grace
Of the
stars that veil Thy face,
Our
hearts ascend. [Chorus]
4
When
forever from our sight
Pass
the stars, the day, the night,
Lord
of angels, on our eyes
Let
eternal morning rise,
And
shadows end. [Chorus]
Chorus:
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Hosts!
Heav'n and earth are full of Thee;
Heav'en and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high!
