@highwaymen34 Actually, it is "God is nigh," meaning near. Not trying to be mean. I just love that particular lyric! Peace!

We sing a version of this song at guides (day is done gone the sun from seas fron the hills from the sky all is well safely rest god is nigh) :)

@7orca2000 T for the ETs. AP for All points bulletin, calling all occupants of interplanetary craft. Tin men to the rescue of the bulls, abused in bullfights, the Madrid train bombing foretold in the Oscar-winning Disney film Ferdinand. bull-ET-in, mourning is nigh. S for swan song for animal-eating human race. Goose pate, taps, Hitler is an ET, plus his goose-stepping Nazis. Any more questions?

Y do they call this Taps?

This is the original Day is done, gone the sun From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky All is well, safely rest God is nigh. Fading light dims the sight And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright From afar, drawing near Falls the night. Thanks and praise for our days Neath the sun, neath the stars, neath the sky As we go, this we know God is nigh. Nigh is correct. It's an older term meaning near.

I'm sorry, But I heard no lyrics, but the written ones are incorrect, The correct ones would be: Day is done, gone the sun From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky All is well, safely rest God is near. Fading light dims the sight And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright From afar, drawing near Falls the night. Thanks and praise for our days Neath the sun, neath the stars, neath the sky As we go, this we know God is near.

@highwaymen34 God is nigh (rhymes with sky). But yes the first verse is wrong.

Go to TAPS150(dot)org and click on the TAPS150 CD and you can hear some more settings of Day is Done (with the correct lyrics)

[highwaymen34]

You FUCKED UP the lyrics, I am a Marine, the lyrics are...... Day is done, Gone the sun, From the lake, From the hills, From the sky, All is well, Safely rest, God is night.
