And thine Angel bear me home.

Evening Hymn.

Nun sich der Tag geendet hat.

Since now the day hath reached its close,

And sun-light shines no more,

In sleep the toil-worn find repose,

And all who wept before.

2. But thou, my God, no rest doth know,

No slumber locks thy sight,

Thou hatest darkness as thy foe,
