#48Softly Now the Light of Day
Hymn Display
1
Softly now the light of day
Fades upon our sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, we would commune with Thee.
2
Thou, whose all-pervading eye
Nought escapes, with-out, within,
Pardon each infirmity,
Open fault, and secret sin.
3
Soon from us the light of day
Shall forever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take us, Lord, to dwell with Thee.
