Hymn: Night is come
Night is come; stars shine down
twinkling over field and town.
Now we stop here to pray:
"Thank you, God, for this day."
This one sleeps; this one wakes.
And each one comfort takes
from the Joy that surrounds
all Creation without bounds.
Day by day, year by year,
let us know You are near.
Night by night from above
teach us mercy, peace, and love.
