Evening and morning    

1) Evening, and morning, sunset and dawning,
wealth, peace, and gladness, comfort in sadness:
these are thy works; all the glory be thine!
Times without number, awake or in slumber,
thine eye observes us, from danger preserves us,
causing thy mercy upon us to shine.

2) Father, oh, hear me, pardon and spare me;
calm all my terrors, blot out my errors,
that by thine eyes they may no more be scanned.
Order my goings, direct all my doings;
as it may please thee, retain or release me;
all I commit to thy fatherly hand.

3) Ills that still grieve me soon are to leave me;
though billows tower, and winds gain power,
after the storm the fair sun shows its face.
Joys e'er increasing and peace never ceasing:
these shall I treasure and share in full measure
when in his mansions God grants me a place.

4) To God in heaven all praise be given!
Come, let us offer and gladly proffer
to the creator the gifts he doth prize.
He well receiveth a heart that believeth;
hymns that adore him are precious before him
and to his throne like sweet incense arise.
