30   Day is dying in the west




[V1]
Day is dying in the west;
Heav`n is touching earth with rest:
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight
Thro` all the sky

[C]
Holy, holy, holy, Lord of Hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are passing
Thee, O, Lord most high.

[V2]
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

[C]
Holy, holy, holy, Lord of Hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are passing
Thee, O, Lord most high.

[V3]
While the deep`ning shadows fall,
Heart of love, enfold us all;
Thro` the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil thy face,
Our hearts ascend.

[C]
Holy, holy, holy, Lord of Hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are passing
Thee, O, Lord most high.

[V4]
When forever from our sight,
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angles our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,
And shadows end.
 

[C]
Holy, holy, holy, Lord of Hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are passing
Thee, O, Lord most high.
