p 2 The day is gone, its hours have run,
And Thou hast taken count of all,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won,
The broken vow, the frequent fall.
f Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
p O gentle Jesus, (cr) be our Light.

mf 3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways
True absolution and release;

And bless us, more than in past days,
With purity and inward peace.

f Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
p O gentle Jesus, (cr) be our Light.

p 4 For all we love, the poor, the sad,
The sinful, unto Thee we call;

cr O let Thy mercy make us glad;
f Thou art our Saviour, and our all.

Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
p O gentle Jesus, (cr) be our Light.

mf 5 Sweet Saviour, bless us; night is come;
dim Thro' night and darkness near us be;
Good angels watch about our home,
And we are one day nearer Thee.
f Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,
p O gentle Jesus, (cr) be our Light.

Full redemption by Thy Blood,
