English text
- Dark'ning night the land doth cover; Day is over:
- We give thanks, O Thou most High, While with wonted hymn we adore Thee,
- And implore Thee, For the light that doth not die
- Like a day our short life hasteth: Soon it wasteth:
- Cometh surely its sad eve: O do Thou that eve enlighten,
- Save and brighten: Nor old age of joy bereave:
- That in peace we our peace win: As Thou wilt, do Thou us ga-ther,
- Gracious Father, Only without shame and sin.
- Now we pray for rest that sleeping in Thy keeping,
- We may joy in the sun's ray. So thro' death's last darkness take us,
- So awake us To heaven's everlasting day.
- Amen.
