Day is dying in the west,
Heaven is touching earth with rest;
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight
Through all the sky.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts;
Heaven and earth are full of Thee,
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high.
Lord of life, beneath the dome
Of the universe Thy home,
Gather us, who seek Thy face,
To the fold of Thy embrace;
For Thou art nigh.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts;
Heaven and earth are full of Thee,
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high.
While the deepening shadows fall
Heart of love enfolding all,
Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts;
Heaven and earth are full of Thee,
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high.
When for ever from our sight
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morn arise,
And shadows end.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts;
Heaven and earth are full of Thee,
Heaven and earth are praising Thee,
O Lord most high.
