Evening Prayer
Now at the daylight's ending
We turn, O God, to you:
Send forth your Holy Spirit,
Our Spirit now renew.
To you in adoration,
In thankfulness and praise,
In faith and hope and gladness,
Our loving hearts we raise.
The gift you gave at daylight
This night you take away,
To leave within our keeping
The blessings of this day.
Take all its joy and sorrow,
Take all that love can give,
But all that needs forgiveness,
Dear Father, now forgive.
With watchful eyes, O Shepherd, Look down upon your sheep;
Stretch forth your hands in healing And close our eyes in sleep.
Come down, O Holy Spirit,
To
be our loving Guest;
Be near us, holy angels,
And guard us as we rest.
We praise you, heav'nly Father: From you all light descends;
You give us heaven's glory
When life's brief daylight ends.
We praise you, Jesus, Savior,
The light of heav'n above;
We praise you, Holy Spirit,
The living flame of love.
Amen
