SKU: A0.922834

Composed by 6th century Latin hymn and Plainsong Melody. Arranged by Jayne Nitz. Christian,Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Score. 5 pages. Jayne Nitz #6340011. Published by Jayne Nitz (A0.922834).

"Before the Ending of the Day," a 6th century Latin chant, is often sung during Compline, a prayer service for evening. This arrangement is inspired by the hymn tune "JAM LUCIS," and I’ve rewritten the text in modern-day English as well as added another verse of my own. It makes a beautiful bedtime prayer. Includes reproducible lead sheet.

This song is part of my "True Songs" contemporary Christian collection, all available on this site. You can watch lyric videos of this entire collection on my YouTube channel, "Jayne Nitz True Songs."

Lyrics:
Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world, we pray.
Send us your perfect peace and grace,
And keep us safe in your embrace.

Put evil dreams out of our sight.
Take all the terrors of the night.
Arrest the worried thoughts that creep
Through heedless minds disarmed by sleep.

This is the LORD's lullaby:
To be at peace,
His angels near your side.
Now, sleep.

O Father please let this be done
Through Jesus Christ, your only Son,
Whom with the Spirit we adore
Forever and forevermore.
