The day, O Lord, is spent

1

The day, O Lord, is spent;Abide with us, and rest;Our hearts' desires are fully bentOn making thee our Guest.

2

We have not reached that land,That happy land, as yet,Where holy angels round thee stand,Whose sun can never set.

3

Our sun is sinking now,Our day is almost o'er;O Sun of Righteousness, do thouShine on us evermore!
