"Did not our hearts burn within us?" asked the disciples as they pondered the significance of the now familiar stranger they had met while on the road to Emmaus. Only after the fact did they realize that is was their Lord who they had invited in saying, "Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." In each one's life there are those times when the "shadows of the evening fall" particularly dark, and the comforting companship of The welcome guest is sorely needed. In the words of this beloved hymn, expressively set in this prayerful arrangement, the collective and individual plea is made, "O Savior, stay this night with me; Behold 'tis eventide."
