HOLY TRINITY. (C.M.) 𝅗𝅥 = 84. Joseph Barnby (1838-1896)

George MacDonald (1824–1905).
Evening Prayer.
O God, whose daylight leadeth downInto the sunless way,Who, with thy sweet repose, dost crownThe labour of the day.
Take it, O Lord, and make it cleanWith thy forgiveness dear;That so the thing that might have been,To-morrow may appear.
And when my thought is all astray,Yet think thou on in me;That with the new unsullied dayMy soul wake fresh and free.
And when thou givest dreams to men,Give dreams, O Lord, to me;That even in visions of the brainI wander towards thee.
