how calmly the evening - edward elgar lyrics

Loading...

how calmly the evening once more is descending
as kind as a promise, as still as a prayer;
o wing of the lord, in thy shelter befriending
may we and our households continue to share

we come to be soothed with thy merciful healing;
the dews of the night cure the wounds of the day;
we come, our life’s work and its brevity feeling
with thanks for the past, for the future we pray

lord, save us from folly; be with us in sorrow;
sustain us in work till the time of our rest;
when earth’s day is over, may heaven’s tomorrow
dawn on us, of homes long expected possest
