Fading light dims the sight
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright
From afar drawing nigh,
Falls the night.

Day is done, gone the sun
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky
All is well, safely rest;
God is nigh.

Then goodnight, peaceful night;
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright.
God is near, do not fear,
Friend, goodnight.

Yeah, in Girl Scouts we sang the second verse around the evening campfires at big gatherings. I never knew there were more verses than just that one until I went trawling online to make sure I remembered it right.
