How calmly the evening



Edward Elgar - How calmly the evening - текст песни (слова)

How calmly the evening once more is descending,
 As kind as a promise, as still as a prayer;
 O wing of the Lord, in Thy shelter befriending,
 May we and our households continue to share.
 
 We come to be soothed with Thy merciful healing;
 The dews of the night cure the wounds of the day;
 We come, our life's work and its brevity feeling,
 With thanks for the past, for the future we pray.
 
 Lord, save us from folly; be with us in sorrow;
 Sustain us in work till the time of our rest;
 When earth's day is over, may heaven's tomorrow
 Dawn on us, of homes long expected possest.
