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.

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.
Of the universe, Thy home,
Gather us, who seek Thy face,
To the fold of Thy embrace,
For Thou art nigh.

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

Our hearts ascend.

Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend.

My father is almost 90 years old and sings this at sunset. It was from his days at camp in Michigan. It will be a wonderful memory for me.

My heart was burden and I recall this song as a child when the family would sit at the dining table and sing this song to closed the Sabbath Rest. Oh how much memory it brought to me RIP MS George.

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!
Addition of 4 from old hymnal.
Precious memories of Chautauqua Institute on a Sunday night. Perfect song for the close of a perfect day at a perfect place.
