Russian Vesper

Now on land and sea descending

Brings the night its peace profound.

Let our vesper hymn be blending

With the holy calm around.

Chorus:

Jubilate!

Jubilate!

Jubilate!

Amen!

Soon as dies the sunset glory,

Stars of heaven shine out above;

Telling still the ancient story,

Their creators changeless love.

As the darkness deepens o'er us,

Lo, eternal stars arise;

Hope and faith and love rise glorious,

Shining in the spirit skies.
