Evening Hymn.
1The day is past and gone;
The evening shades appear;
O, may we all remember well
The night of death draws near!
2We lay our garments by,
Upon our beds to rest;
So death shall soon disrobe us all
Of what is here possessed.
3Lord, keep us safe this night,
Secure from all our fears;
May angels guard us, while we sleep,
Till morning light appears!
