Now At The Ending Of The Day

Now at the ending of the day is a hymn composed by Mellar Servus. In his journal it was given the alternate title, "A Hymn for the Evening."

Text
Now at the ending of the day, With hearts content thy people pray, We see the setting of the sun, And turn our hopes towards morrow's dawn.

Ye, for us children of the Light, Dusk's darkness and the black of night, Brings fear and chilling thoughts of ill. Confirm our weak, uncertain will.

For in this darkness we shall fall, A hidden light's the doom of all, But thou's not hidden from our sight, With twinkling stars thou lights our night.
