Now the Day Is Over Lyrics
Now the Day Is Over - Jo Stafford/Gordon MacRae
Now the day is over
Night is drawing nigh
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky
Now the darkness gathers
Stars begin to peep
Birds and beasts and flowers
Soon will be asleep
Jesus give the weary
Calm and sweet repose;
With Thy tend'rest blessing
May mine eyelids close
Through the long night-watches
May Thine angels spread
Their white wings above me
Watching round my bed
