Alone at Eve

Walking alone at eve and view­ing the skies afar

Bidding the dark­ness come to wel­come each sil­ver star;

I have a great de­light in the won­der­ful scenes above

God in His pow­er and might is show­ing His truth and love.

O

for a home with God

a place in His courts to rest;

Sure in a safe abode with Je­sus and the blest;

Rest for a wea­ry soul once re­deemed by the Sav­ior’s love

Where I’ll be pure and whole and live with my God above!

Sitting alone at eve and dream­ing the hours away

Watching the sha­dows fall­ing now at the close of day;

God in His mer­cy comes with His Word; He is draw­ing near

Spreading His love and truth around me and ev­ery­where.

Closing my eyes at eve and think­ing of Heav­en’s grace

Longing to see my Lord

yes

meet­ing Him face to face;

Trusting Him as my all where­so­ev­er my foots­teps roam

Pleading with Him to guide me on to the spir­it’s home!
