14367. On This Sabbath Day

1 Jesus, now we come to Thee,
Faithfully, earnestly;
We are Thine, enlighten us
On this Sabbath day.

Refrain:
How happy we should be
When we read, sing and pray,
Our praise we give to Thee,
On this Sabbath day.

2 Taught and guided may we be,
Joyfully, cheerfully;
May we give our praise to Thee
On this Sabbath day. [Refrain]

3 Guard and keep us thro’ this day,
Lovingly, tenderly;
Help us, Lord to watch and pray
Thro’ this Sabbath day. [Refrain]
