Hymn No. 117
"Now the Day is Over"

Now the day is over, night is drawing nigh,
        shadows of the evening steal across the sky.   

  Jesus, give the weary calm and sweet repose;
        with thy tenderest blessing may our eyelids close.

Grant to little children, Visions bright of thee;
        Guard the sailors tossing, On the deep blue sea.     

      When the morning wakens, then may I arise
        pure, and fresh, and sinless in thy Holy eyes.

    A-men

[KMI Vesper programs ended with the singing of Hymn No. 117 "Now the Day is Over" to end chaple service.]
