worshipped God.“

UR day of praise is done; The evening shadows fall;

Büt pass not from us with the sun, True Light that lightenest all.

Around the Throne on high, Where night can never be,

The white-robed harpers of the sky Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee.

FToo faint our anthems here; Too soon of praise we tire:

But oh, the strains how full and clear Of that eternal choir!

NYet, LoRp, to Thy dear Will If Thou attune the heart, We in Thine Angels' music still May bear our lower part.

„Tis Thine each soul to calm, FEach wayward thought reclaim,

And make our life a daily psalm Of glory to Thy Name.

A little while, and then. Shall come the glorious end; And songs of Angels and of men In perfect praise shall blend. Amen.

1 The Lord shall give His people the blessing of Peace.“

AT THE END OF DIVINE SERVICE.

AVIOUR, again to Thy dear Name we raise

With one accord our parting hymn of praise;

We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease; Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace. 3

Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way; 4 With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day; Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon Thy Name.

Grant us Thy peace, Lonp, through the coming night; Turn Thou för us its darkness into light;

From harm and danger keep Thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to Thee.

Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life, Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife; Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O LORP, to Thine eternal peace, Amen,
