Hymn 433: All the night, at the dusk of woe;

Li oru ibanuje ni

  1. All the night, at the dusk of woe;
    When hade erupteth in its strength,
    Unto Wonderful Son of God,
    Gift of victory against His foe.

  2. Ere commence His passion and strife,
    The bread He offereth, art though blessed:
    Thou who Thine work in all art love,
    Hark his word spoken art of grace.

  3. His sacred flesh offered for sin,
    Partake, oh, bread of life it be;
    The sacred wine He gavest thee,
    This art my covenant, my blood.

  4. This He commandeth do till aye,
    In mem’ry of thy sacred friend;
    Whence thou shall meet, recall to thee
    Thy departed God is but love.

  5. Christ Jesus Thy commands our joy,
    Thine redemptive death, hymns reveal;
    Ere Thou cometh hither below
    Supper we shall with Thee partake. Amen.
