O Bless the Hour When Evening Comes

lyricist: N. J. Squires, 1888
Composer: Katholisches Gesangbuch, 1774

O bless the hour when ev­en­ing comes

And calls us to our place of pray­er;

With joy­ful heart our feet we turn

To meet our Lord’s dis­ci­ples there.

With one ac­cord we ga­ther here

Our wants make known

our sins con­fess;

Dear Sav­ior

wilt Thou now ap­pear

And bless

as on­ly Thou canst bless.

Our faith in­crease

our fears re­move

Make strong the weak

the help­less raise

May ev­ery heart here feel Thy love

And ev­ery tongue speak forth Thy praise.

No want we have Thou canst not fill

No need but Thou canst ful­ly meet;

May we ob­ey Thy gra­cious will

And find our lives in Thee com­plete.
