2 The day is gone, its hours have run,      4 Do more than pardon; give us joy, And thou hast taken count of all,                Sweet fear, and sober liberty,
I The scanty triumphs grace hath won,         And simple hearts without alloy The broken vow, the frequent fall.               That only long to be like Thee.
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,    Thro' life's long day and death's dark night, 0 gentle Jesus, be our Light.                         O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
"3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways       5 For all we love, the poor, the sad, : True absolution and release;                          The sinful, unto Thee we call;
And bless us, more than in past days,        Oh, let Thy mercy make us glad:
With purity and inward peace.                      Thou art our Jesus, and our all.
Thro' life's long day and death's dark night,    Thro' life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light.                         O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
Rev. Frederic w. Faber, 1849
