AN EVENING SONG, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: And now another day is gone
Last Line: Rejoicing in thy love.
Subject(s): Evening; Sunset; Twilight


AND now another day is gone,
I'll sing my Maker's praise;
My comforts every hour make known
His providence and grace.

. . . .

I lay my body down to sleep;
Let angels guard my head,
And through the hours of darkness keep
Their watch around my bed.

With cheerful heart I close my eyes,
Since thou wilt not remove;
And in the morning let me rise
Rejoicing in thy love.
