Hymn A & M 37- Fast sinks the sun to rest
1. Fast sinks the sun to rest,
Fast falls the shades of night;
Fain would the weary heart
Keep love’s frail flame alight,
End the day that fading dies
With an offering of sacrifice.
2. E’en as the crucified,
Calm in the hour of death,
unto his father’s hands
Yielded his latest breath,
So my spirit would repose
Safe in God’s mighty keeping close.
3. Meekly beneath his hand
Lieth my helplessness,
Thinking and caring naught
Save what he purposes,
And in utter calm abides,
Dead to self and to all besides.
4. Be it not I who live
But God who lives in me,
Reigning and triumphing
In love’s sweet majesty;
May he mine for ever be,
God who one is in Trinity.
