Hail! sacred day of earthly rest
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #203 (1917) Topics: Sabbath (the Christian) Lord's Day Lyrics: 1 Hail! sacred day of earthly rest,
From toil and trouble free:
Hail! day of light, that bringest light
And joy to me.
2 A holy stillness, breathing calm
On all the world around,
Uplifts my soul, O God, to Thee,
Where rest is found.
3 No sound of jarring strife is heard,
As weekly labours cease;
No voice, but those that sweetly sing
Sweet songs of peace.
4 On all I think, or say, or do,
A ray of light divine
Is shed, O God, this day by Thee,
For it is Thine.
5 I hear the organ loudly peal,
And soaring voices raise
To Thee, their great Creator, hymns
Of deathless praise.
6 All earthly things appear to fade
As, rising high and higher,
The yearning voices strive to join
The heavenly choir.
7 For those who sing with saints below
Glad songs of heavenly love,
Shall sing when songs one earth have ceased
With saints above.
8 Accept, O God, my hymn of praise,
That Thou this day hast given
Sweet foretaste of the endless day
Of rest in heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: WREFORD

We rose to-day with anthems sweet

To sing before the mercy-seat,
And ere the darkness round us fell
We bade the grateful vespers swell.
2 Whate'ever has risen from heart sincere,
Each upward glance of filial fear,
Each true resolve, each solemn vow,
Jesus our Lord, accept them now.
3 Whate'er beneath Thy searching eyes
Has wrought to spoil our sacrifice,
'Mid this sweet stillness while we bow,
Jesus our Lord, forgive us now.
4 O teach us erring souls to win,
And hide their multitude of sin,
To tread in Christ's longsuffering way,
And grow more like Him day by day.
5 So as our Sabbaths hasten past,
And rounding years bring nigh the last;
When sinks the sun behind the hill,
When all the weary wheels stand still;
6 When by our bed the loved ones weep,
And death-dews o'er the forehead creep,
And vain is help or hope from men;
Jesus our Lord, receive us then. Languages: English Tune Title: NORWOOD

No mortal cares disturb my breast;
O may my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp of solemn sound!
3 My heart still triumph in the Lord,
And bless His works, and bless His word;
Thy works of grace, how bright they shine!
How deep Thy counsels, how divine!
4 O may I share a glorious part
When grace has well refined my heart;
And fresh supplies of joy be shed,
Like holy oil to cheer my head.
5 Then shall I see, and hear, and know
All I desired and wished below;
And every power and find sweet employ
In that eternal world of joy. Languages: English Tune Title: HOME

To that our labouring souls aspire,
With ardent hope, and strong desire.
3 No more fatigue, no more distress
Nor sin nor hell shall reach the place;
No sighs shall mingle with the songs
Which warble from immortal tongues.

No cares to break the long repose;
No midnight shade, no clouded sun,
But sacred, high, eternal noon.

Dawn on these realms of woe and sin;
Fain would we leave this weary road,
And sleep in death, to rest with God. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBAN

And sweet the sleep which follows pain;
And sweetly steals the Sabbath rest
Upon the world's work-wearied breast.

The poor man's birthright and his balm;
God's witness of celestial things;
A sun with healing in its wings.
3 New rising in this gospel time,
And in its sevenfold light sublime,
Blest day of God! we hail its dawn,
To gratitude and worship drawn.

Should with the sacred hours abide;
At work for God, in loved employ,
We lose the duty in the joy.

And make us strong in faith to live;
Our utmost, sorest need supply,
And make us strong in faith to die. Languages: English Tune Title: ARIZONA

Now for a tune of lofty praise
To great Jehovah's equal Son!
Awake, my voice, in heav'nly lays
Tell the loud wonders he hath done.
Sing how he left the worlds of light,
And the bright robes he wore above;
How swift and joyful was his flight,
On wings of everlasting love!
[Down to this base, this sinful earth,
He came to raise our nature high;
He came t' atone Almighty wrath;
Jesus, the God, was born to die.]
[Hell and its lions roared around,
His precious blood the monsters spilt;
While weighty sorrows pressed him down,
Large as the loads of all our guilt.]
Deep in the shades of gloomy death
Th' almighty Captive pris'ner lay,
Th' almighty Captive left the earth,
And rose to everlasting day.
Lift up your eyes, ye sons of light,
Up to his throne of shining grace;
See what immortal glories sit
Round the sweet beauties of his face!
Amongst a thousand harps and songs,
Jesus, the God, exalted reigns;
His sacred name fills all their tongues,
And echoes through the heav'nly plains.
Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English

O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee the high and lowly
Before the eternal throne
Sing Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the great Three in One.
2 On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth;
On thee for our salvation,
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee our Lord victorious,
The Spirit sent from heaven;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given.

The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel-light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
4 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest;
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One. Languages: English Tune Title: DAY OF REST
O day of rest and gladness
