From our worldly cares set free, May we rest this day with Thee. 4 As we come Thy name to praise, May we feel Thy presence near; May Thy glory meet our eyes While we in Thy house appear! Here afford us, Lord, a taste Of our everlasting feast. 5 May Thy Gospel's joyful sound Conquer sinners, comfort saints; May the fruits of grace abound, Bring relief for all complaints. This may all our Sabbaths prove, Till we join the Church above. Amen. Topics: Adoration Lord's Day Used With Tune: VOLLER WUNDER
