Day is dy­ing in the west;
Heav’n is touch­ing earth with rest;
Wait and wor­ship while the night
Sets the ev­en­ing lamps alight
Through all the sky.

Refrain

Holy, ho­ly, ho­ly, Lord God of Hosts!
Heav’n and earth are full of Thee!
Heav’n and earth are prais­ing Thee,
O Lord most high!

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.

Refrain

While the deep­en­ing sha­dows fall,
Heart of love en­fold­ing all,
Through the glo­ry and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts as­cend.

Refrain

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.
