1 Great God, to Thee my evening song,
With humble gratitude I raise:
Oh, let Thy mercy tune my tongue,
And fill my heart with lively praise.

2 My days unclouded as they pass,
And every gently rolling hour,
Are monuments of wondrous grace,
And witness to Thy love and power.

3 And yet this thoughtless, wretched heart,
Too oft regardless of Thy love,
Ungrateful, can from Thee depart,
And from the path of duty rove.

4 Seal my forgiveness in the blood
Of Christ my Lord; His Name alone
I plead for pardon, gracious God,
And kind acceptance at Thy throne.

5 With hope in Him mine eyelids close;
With sleep refresh my feeble frame;
Safe in Thy care may I repose,
And wake with praises to Thy Name.

      1 Great God, to Thee my evening song,
      With humble gratitude I raise:
      Oh, let Thy mercy tune my tongue,
      And fill my heart with lively praise.

      2 My days unclouded as they pass,
      And every gently rolling hour,
      Are monuments of wondrous grace,
      And witness to Thy love and power.

      3 And yet this thoughtless, wretched heart,
      Too oft regardless of Thy love,
      Ungrateful, can from Thee depart,
      And from the path of duty rove.

      4 Seal my forgiveness in the blood
      Of Christ my Lord; His Name alone
      I plead for pardon, gracious God,
      And kind acceptance at Thy throne.

      5 With hope in Him mine eyelids close;
      With sleep refresh my feeble frame;
      Safe in Thy care may I repose,
      And wake with praises to Thy Name.
