95   Safely through another week




[V1]
Safely through another week,
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now blessing seek,
Waiting in his courts today,
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.

[V2]
While we seek supplies of grace,
Through the dear Redeemer’s name,
Show thy reconciling face,
Take away our sin and shame,
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in thee;
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in thee.

[V3]
Here we come thy name to praise,
May we feel thy presence near,
May thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in thy courts appear.
Here, afford us, Lord, a taste,
Of our everlasting feast.
Here, afford us, Lord, a taste,
Of our everlasting feast.

[V4]
May the gospel’s joyful sound,
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruit of grace abound,
Bring relief to all complaints;
Thus may all our Sabbaths be,
Till we rise to reign with thee,
Thus may all our Sabbaths be,
Till we rise to reign with thee.
