The day Thou gavest Lord is ended
The darkness falls at Thy behest
To Thee our morning hymns ascended
Thy praise shall sanctify our rest
Verse 2
We thank Thee that Thy church unsleeping
While earth rolls onward into light
Through all the world her watch is keeping
And rests not now by day or night
Verse 3
So be it Lord Thy throne shall never
Like earth’s proud empires pass away
Thy Kingdom stands and grows for ever
Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway
