1
Day is dying in the west;
Heaven 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!
Heaven and earth are full of Thee!
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high!
2
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.
3
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.
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.

We always sang this song to close the SAbbath with my grandma Marie, she is resting till Jesus returns. Love it!
Have always loved this song. So serene and fitting to close out the sacred Sabbath day. Reminds me of candle-lit vespers as a young person.
I love it

Oh yes
Every Sabbath my family sings this song at Sunset. It has been a tradition in my family for many generations.
This is my favorite song I absolutely love it
This song makes me feel the presence of God more; especially on a Sabbath evening.
This song never goes out of season.
Good afternoon
