<p>Now, on land and sea descending,<br>
|
|
Brings the night its peace profound;<br>
|
|
Let our vesper hymn be blending<br>
|
|
With the holy calm around.<br>
|
|
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!<br>
|
|
Let our vesper hymn be blending<br>
|
|
With the holy calm around.</p>
|
|
<p>Soon as dies the sunset glory,<br>
|
|
Stars of heaven shine out above,<br>
|
|
Telling still the ancient story,<br>
|
|
Their Creator’s changeless love.<br>
|
|
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!<br>
|
|
Telling still the ancient story,<br>
|
|
Their Creator’s changeless love.</p>
|
|
<p>Now, our wants and burdens leaving<br>
|
|
To God’s care Who cares for all,<br>
|
|
Cease we fearing, cease we grieving,<br>
|
|
Touched by God our burdens fall.<br>
|
|
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!<br>
|
|
Cease we fearing, cease we grieving,<br>
|
|
Touched by God our burdens fall.</p>
|
|
<p>As the darkness deepens over us<br>
|
|
Lo! eternal stars arise;<br>
|
|
Hope and faith and love rise glorious,<br>
|
|
Shining in the Spirit’s skies.<br>
|
|
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!<br>
|
|
Hope and faith and love rise glorious,<br>
|
|
Shining in the Spirit’s skies.</p>
