| All the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the Lord with their faces to the ground. (Neh. 8:6) |
| At the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and … I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the Lord my God. (Ezra 9:5) |
| Let my prayer be set forth before Thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. (Psa. 141:2) |
In darkness and in silence still and sweet,
With blessed awe my spirit feels Thee near;
Within the holiest, worships at Thy feet:
Speak Thou, and silence all my soul to hear. |
To Thee my heart as incense shall arise;
Consumed upon Thine altar all my will;
Love, praise and peace, an evening sacrifice,
And in the Lord I rest, and I am still. |
