Evening and morning

Lyrics

  1. Evening and morning,
    Sunset and dawning,
    Wealth, peace and gladness,
    Comfort in sadness:
    These are Thy works; all the glory be Thine!
    Times without number,
    Awake or in slumber,
    Thine eye observes us,
    From danger preserves us,
    Causing Thy mercy upon us to shine.
  2. Father, O hear me,
    Pardon and spare me;
    Calm all my terrors,
    Blot out my errors,
    That by Thine eyes they may no more be scanned.
    Order my goings,
    Direct all my doings;
    As it may please Thee,
    Retain or release me;
    All I commit to Thy fatherly hand.
