EN 2857 The Sun Is Sinking Fast

Matt.6.10

Versi Version 1

1

The sun is sinking fast,

The daylight dies;

Let love awake, and pay

Her evening sacrifice.

2

As Christ upon the cross

His head inclined,

And to His Father’s hands

His parting soul resigned;

3

So now herself my soul

Would wholly give

Into His sacred charge

In Whom all spirits live;

4

So now beneath His eye

Would calmly rest,

Without a wish or thought

Abiding in the breast;

5

Save that His will be done,

Whate’er betide;

Dead to herself, and dead

In Him to all beside.

6

Thus would I live: yet now

Not I, but He,

In all His power and love,

Henceforth alive in me.

7

One sacred Trinity,

One Lord divine,

May I be ever His,

And He forever mine.
