92   Dont forget the sabath




[V1]
Don’t forget the Sabbath,
The Lord our God hath blest;
Of all the weak the brightest,
Of all the week the best;
It brings response from labor,
It tells of joy divine,
Its beams of light descending,
With heav’nly beauty shine

[C]
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.

[V2]
Keep the Sabbath holy,
And worship him today;
Who said to his disciples,
“I am the Living Way.”
And if we meekly follow,
Our Saviour here below;
He’ll give us of the Fountain,
With streams eternal flow.

[C]
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.

[V3]
Day of sacred pleasure!
Its golden hours we’ll spend,
In thankful hymns to Jesus,
The children’s dearest friend;
O gentle, loving Saviour,
How good and kind thou art,
How precious is thy promise,
To dwell in every heart.

[C]
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.
