Author Sabine Baring-Gould Sabine Baring-Gould's bio information January 28, 1834 - January 2, 1924 Born: January 28, 1834, Exeter, England. Died: January 2, 1924, Lew Trenchard, Devonshire, England. Buried: In the churchyard across the road from his home at Lew Trenchard. Baring-Gould had one of the most brilliant, eclectic minds of Victorian England. Born into the landed gentry, he attended schools in Germany and France, then went to Clare College at Cambridge. He learned six languages, entered the ministry at age 30, and pastored in Yorkshire, Essex, and Devonshire. He also found time to write over 100 books, including 30 novels and a mammoth 16-volume Lives of the Saints. His works cover a huge range of topics: theology, folklore, social commentary, travel & history. One account of his life states, “At one point there were more books listed under his name in the British Museum Library than under that of any other English writer.” But he was not just an author: he was an archaeologist, architect, artist, teacher and a collector of English folk songs. His family estate at Lew Trenchard, near Dartmoor in Devonshire, is now a hotel.

Notes Text from Proverbs 3:24 Merrial 6. 5. 6. 5.
Lyrics Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh; Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky. Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose; With Thy tend'rest blessing May mine eyelids close. Grant to little children Visions bright of Thee; Guard the sailors tossing On the deep blue sea. Thro' the long night watches May Thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed. When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure and fresh and sinless In Thy holy eyes. Glory to the Father, Glory to the Son, And to Thee, blest Spirit, While all ages run.
