Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #238 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Welcome, sweet day of rest,
The day believers prize,
Welcome to this reviving breast,
And these rejoicing eyes.
2 The King himself comes near,
And feasts his saints to-day;
Here we may sit, and taste his cheer,
And love, and praise, and pray.
3 One day within the place
Where Christ, my Lord, has been,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Of folly and of sin.
4 My willing soul would stay
In such a frame as this
Till called to rise and soar away
To everlasting bliss. Topics: Worship The Sabbath Tune Title: BADEA
Welcome, sweet day of rest
