The Day Is Past and Gone VESPER—Jeremiah Ingalls GAVIN—Aaron Chapin GARDEN CITY—Horatio W. Parker LELAND—L. M. Fosbery The Day Is Past and Gone 1 The day is past and gone, The evening shades appear; O may we all remember well, The night of death draws near. 2 We lay our garments by, upon our beds to rest; So death will soon disrobe us all of what is here possest. 3 Lord, keep us safe this night, Secure from all our fears; May angels guard us while we sleep, Till morning light appears.
