Exodus_33-14-2: And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.

The Lord’s own hallowed day of

rest

O day most beautiful and

bright:

A day given to us by God

For us, a day to rest therein.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Six days He provided for us

To do all that we have to do;

The seventh day He set aside,

It is God’s hallowed day of rest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let us forsake our vain pursuits

Our daily duties for six days,

Our work today, let hallowed be,

Because the day belongs to

God.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Strength from above enerves us well

For service in the house of God;

Let us sing a joyful anthem,

On the Lord’s day; this early morn.
