Sundown

By John Charles McNeill

Hills, wrapped in gray, standing along the west;

Clouds, dimly lighted, gathering slowly;

The star of peace at watch above the crest —

Oh, holy, holy, holy!

We know, O Lord, so little what is best;

Wingless, we move so lowly;

But in thy calm all-knowledge let us rest —

Oh, holy, holy, holy!
