Day is done,
gone the sun,
from the lakes
from the hills from the sky,
all is well,
safely, rest,
God is near.
Fading light,
Dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky
Gleaming bright,
From afar, Drawing, near,
Falls the night.
Thanks and praise,
For our days,
Neath the sun
Neath the stars
Neath the sky,
As we go,
This, we, know,
God is near.

Sometimes the simplest is the most beautiful and eloquent. Thank you.
(I always thought it was “God is nigh” to rhyme with “sky.”)

PDOE,
Could be on the lyrics. I saw various on the web as I searched them. I also read there aren’t any official lyrics, just some folks have written over the years.
thanks
