Evening Hymn:

Joyous light of heavenly glory, loving glow of God's own face,

You who sing creation's story, shine on every land and race.

Now the evening falls around us, we shall raise our songs to you,

God of daybreak, God of shadows, come and light our hearts anew.

In the stars that grace the darkness, the blazing sun of dawn,

In the light of peace and wisdom, we can hear your quiet song.

Love that fills the night with wonder, love that warms the weary soul.

Love that bursts all chains asunder, set us free and make us whole.

You who made the heaven's splendor, every dancing star of night,

Make us shine with gentle justice, let us each reflect your light.

Mighty God of all creation, gentle Christ who lights our way,

Loving Spirit of salvation, lead us on to endless day.

Evening Thanksgiving
