Text (based on Lucke 24:29)
Blieb bei uns, denn es will Abend werden;
Und der Tag hat sich geneiget, sich geneiget,
O bleib bei uns, denn es will Abend werden.
Bide with us, for evening shadows darken;
And the day will soon be over, soon be over,
O bide with us, for evening shadows darken.
Tr. John Rutter (b. 1945)
