Yom Kippur

TO Thee we give ourselves today,

Forgetful of the world outside;

We tarry in Thy House, O Lord,

From eventide to eventide.

From Thy all-seeing, righteous eye

Our deepest heart can nothing hide;

It crieth up to Thee for peace

From eventide to eventide.

Who could endure, should’st Thou, O Lord,

As we deserve, forever chide?

We therefore seek Thy pardoning grace

From eventide to eventide.

O may we lay to heart how swift

The years of life do onward glide;

So learn to live that we may see

Thy light at our life’s eventide.
