I'll thank thee O my God and Saviour,
And praise Thee in my even song.
The sun may set, but Thy great favour,
Shalt Thou through darkest night prolong.
Thy help and grace where ever near us,
More than a father didst Thou care.
Thou Fount of blessing, Thou dost hear us,
Thy wondrous mercies, I declare.
I know in whom my hope is founded,
through ever changing day and night.
Thou hast me with Thy love surrounded;
Thou are my Rock, I trust Thy might.
When once life's evening veils enshroud me,
I'll bring, though worn by ills and strife.
For everyday Thou hast allowed me,
Thee higher praise, O God of life!
Evensong
