Softly Now, the Light of Day
Carl Maria von Weber, George Doane
Softly now the light of day
Fades upon my sight away free from care
From labor free
Lord, I would commune with Thee
Soon for me
The light of day shall forever pass away
Then from sin and sorrow free
Take me Lord to dwell with Thee
Thou who's sinless yet as snow
All of man's infirmity
Then from Thine eternal throne
Jesus look with pitying eye
Amen
