|
<p>Again, as evening’s shadow falls,<br>
|
|
We gather in these hallowed walls;<br>
|
|
And vesper hymn and vesper prayer<br>
|
|
Rise mingling on the holy air.</p>
|
|
<p>May struggling hearts that seek release<br>
|
|
Here find the rest of God’s own peace;<br>
|
|
And, strengthened here by hymn and prayer,<br>
|
|
Lay down the burden and the care.</p>
|
|
<p>O God, our light! to Thee we bow;<br>
|
|
Within all shadows standest Thou;<br>
|
|
Give deeper calm than night can bring;<br>
|
|
Give sweeter songs than lips can sing.</p>
|
|
<p>Life’s tumult we must meet again,<br>
|
|
We cannot at the shrine remain;<br>
|
|
But in the spirit’s secret cell<br>
|
|
May hymn and prayer forever dwell.</p>
