Sheet music

  1. 1Our day of praise is done,The evening shadows fall;But pass not from us with the sun,True light that lightest all.Around the throne on high,Where night can never be,The white robed angels of the skyBring ceaseless hymns to Thee.
  2. 2’Tis Thine each soul to calm,Each wayward tho’t reclaim,And make our life a daily psalmOf glory to Thy name.
