Something 'bout the setting sun
turns my heart
to musing on times past,
returning to remember
times of sorrow,
times of joy...
Something 'bout the end of day
finds me rummaging,
finds me rummaging,
sorting through my memories,
sorting out the best ones, sifting
through an attic's hidden treasures...
Something 'bout this evening, Lord,
stirs my grateful heart
with souvenirs
of long-ago-but-not-forgotten joy,
of peace embedded
deep within my soul...
Something 'bout this eventide
comforts and consoles,
reminding me,
in good times and in bad:
you've always been my best,
my beloved, my trusted friend...
Something in the twilight, Lord,
renews my faith,
makes fresh my hope
and kindles in my heart of hearts,
the embers of your kindness,
the fire of your love...
Something 'bout the setting sun
now turns my heart to you, Lord,
with soulful, happy memories,
with dreams and sweet imaginings
to keep me safe in sleep
throughout the night...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake,
keep vigil while I sleep,
that awake, I keep the watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.
Tonight's song is a guitar instrumental - the second half is my favorite part. Daniel Bachman plays us a beautiful musical sunset - something you might enjoy sitting with for a while, at least doe as long you like...
