Text:	Softly now the light of day
Author:	Bp. G. W. Doane

1 Softy now the light of day
Fades upon our sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, we would commune with Thee.

2 Soon from us the light of day
Shall forever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take us, Lord, to dwell with Thee.
