Taps
Day is done, gone the sun
From the lake, from the hill,
From the sky.
All is well; safely rest.
God is nigh.
Go to sleep, peaceful sleep,
may the soldier or sailor, God keep.
On the land or the deep, safe in sleep.
Love, good night, must thou go,
when the day, and the night need thee so?
All is well. Speedeth all to their rest.
Fades the light; and afar goeth day,
and the stars shineth bright, fare thee well;
day has gone, night is on
Thanks and praise
For our days
‘Neath the sun, ‘neath the stars, ‘Neath the sky.
As we go, this we know:
God is nigh.
