Smiles of His love await thee, Lighting His lovely face; Just to behold His beauty, Dwell in the secret place. Boldly we may approach Him, Mercy and grace to own; Tempted like us, He bid us Come to the Father’s throne.

Softly the evening vespers
Hallow the closing day;
Sweetly the Savior whispers,
“Come to the throne and pray.”
- Refrain:
  Softly I hear Him calling,
  Calling at close of day;
  Sweetly His tones are falling,
  “Come to the throne and pray.”
Come, ere the shadows lengthen,
Bring Him thy burdened heart;
Come where His grace may strengthen,
Come from thy cares apart.
Smiles of His love await thee,
Lighting His lovely face;
Just to behold His beauty,
Dwell in the secret place.
Boldly we may approach Him,
Mercy and grace to own;
Tempted like us, He bid us
Come to the Father’s throne.
