It Is a Beauteous Evening Lyrics

[00:06.71]	It is a beauteous evening, calm and free,
[00:11.40]	The holy time is quiet as a Nun
[00:14.23]	Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
[00:17.96]	Is sinking down in its tranquility;
[00:21.23]	The gentleness of heaven broods o'er the Sea;
[00:25.38]	Listen! the mighty Being is awake,
[00:29.11]	And doth with his eternal motion make
[00:31.53]	A sound like thunder—everlastingly.
[00:36.43]	Dear child! dear Girl! that walkest with me here,
[00:41.82]	If thou appear untouched by solemn thought,
[00:45.66]	Thy nature is not therefore less divine:
[00:49.44]	Thou liest in Abraham's bosom all the year;
[00:53.28]	And worshipp'st at the Temple's inner shrine,
[00:57.61]	God being with thee when we know it not.
[01:01.70]
