35. Holy Sabbath

1 Holy, holy, holy Sabbath,
Day of worship and of rest;
Happiest day, the hallowed seventh,
By the God of glory blest;
By the God of glory blest.

2 Holy, holy, holy Sabbath,
Teach out hearts in Christ to rest,
And in Him to find redemption
For our souls by sin distressed,
For our souls by sin distressed.

3 Holy, holy, holy Sabbath,
Sunshine ne'er so sweet as thine,
Lift our hearts to Christ and glory,
While the Spirit's light doth shine:
While the Spirit's light doth shine.
