Lord of the Sabbath, hear us pray

Author: Philip Doddridge; Thomas Cotterill Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #322 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Invocation Lyrics: 1 Lord of the Sabbath, hear us pray, In this thy house, on this thy day; And own, as grateful sacrifice, The songs which from thy temple rise. 2 Now met to pray and bless thy Name, Whose mercies flow each day the same, Whose kind compassions never cease, We seek instruction, pardon, peace. 3 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love, But there's a nobler rest above; To that our lab'ring souls aspire With ardent hope and strong desire. 4 In thy blest kingdom we shall be From ev'ry mortal trouble free; No sighs shall mingle with the songs Resounding from immortal tongues; 5 No rude alarms of raging foes; No cares to break the long repose; No midnight shade, no waning moon, But sacred, high, eternal noon. 6 O long-expected day, begin, Dawn on these realms of woe and sin! Break, morn of God, upon our eyes; And let the world's true Sun arise! Amen. Scripture: Matthew 12:8 Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY
