Savior, Again To Thy Dear Name We Raise

John Ellerton
6 Verses Evening Prayer
Verse 1
Savior, again to Thy dear Name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease; Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace.
Verse 2
Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way; With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day. Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon Thy Name.
Verse 3
Grant us Thy peace, through this approaching night; Turn Thou for us its darkness into light; From harm and danger keep Thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to Thee.
Verse 4
Grant us Thy peacethe peace Thou didst bestow On Thine Apostles in Thine hour of woe; The peace Thou broughtest, when at eventide They saw Thy piercd hands, Thy wounded side.
Verse 5
Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life; Peace to Thy church from error and from strife; Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love; Peace in each heart, Thy Spirit from above.
Verse 6
Thy peace in life, the balm of every pain; Thy peace in death, the hope to rise again; Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.
