562 Now the day is over,

1 Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh, Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky. 2 Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose; With Thy tender blessing May our eyelids close. 3 Comfort every sufferer Watching late in pain; Those who plan some evil From their sins restrain. 4 Through the long night-watches, May Thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed. 5 When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure and fresh and sinless In Thy holy eyes.
