And a voice through the wait­ing night:
Let the low­er lights be burn­ing!
Let the low­er lights be burn­ing!
For work, and all the les­sons that it brings.

The night draws near, the ev­en­ing star
To their pro­mised home.
Carol forth His prais­es, twine your gar­lands gay;
And bring the glad day.

Work, for the day will come;
start
The prison-doors will open,
Who or­der­est time and change aright,
start
When Heav­en lay op­en wide,
Behold a flood of glo­ry,
Far, far at sea.
With health, and light, and peace.
O watch my dy­ing face,

Gleam

Banners un­furled o’er all the world;
For to us He gives the keep­ing
For to us He gives the keep­ing
Which ev­er rip­en­ing still re­news our youth;
There’s a great stone rolled from the grave away;
And far away, across the bar,
Piercing through this night of gloom!
Tell the sweet­est mes­sage known to mor­tal men,
Scatter the dark­ness, ban­ish our fears;
Waving on Christ’s sol­diers to their home on high.
Jesus will lead us home.
The first bright rays of dawn;
And sin-chained souls around thee
Kindling the noon­day’s fie­ry beams.
And cheer me on and on;
Of one still coun­try­side;
All hail the an­gel’s sto­ry
Bless the soul that sighs for Thee,
And ev­er green the sod;
Which on earth each fea­ture plays.
