Welcome, delightful morn
Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 with repeat Appears in 474 hymnals Topics: Holy Spirit Descent of; Holy Spirit Dove Lyrics: 1 Welcome, delightful morn,
Thou day of sacred rest!
I hail thy kind return,
Lord, make these moments blest;
From the low train of mortal toys
I soar to reach immortal joys,
I soar to reach immortal joys.
2 Now may the King descend,
And fill his throne of grace;
Thy scepter, Lord, extend,
While saints address thy face;
Let sinners feel thy quick'ning Word,
And learn to know and fear the Lord,
And learn to know and fear the Lord.
3 Descend, celestial Dove,
Will all thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Disclose a Saviour's love,
And bless these sacred hours;
Then shall my soul new life obtain,
Nor Sabbaths e'er be spent in vain,
Nor Sabbaths e'er be spent in vain.

all praise be to his name,
who was, and is, and is to be,
and still the same:
the one eternal God
before what now appears,
the First, the Last, beyond all thought
his timeless years!
2 Formless, all lovely forms
declare his loveliness;
holy, no holiness of earth
can his express.
Behold the Lord of all:
creation speaks his praise,
and everywhere above, below,
his will obeys.
3 God's Spirit freely flows,
high surging where it will:
in prophet's word he spoke of old,
is speaking still.
Established is God's law
and changeless it shall stand,
deep written on the human heart,
on sea, on land.
4 God has eternal life
implanted in the soul;
his love shall be our strength and stay
while ages roll.
Praise to the living God,
all praise be to his name,
who was, and is, and is to be,
and still the same! Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:11-14 Used With Tune: LEONI Text Sources: Jewish Yigdal c. 13th cent.

placed according to your will,
let us all our work fulfil;
4 freely may we all agree,
touched with loving sympathy;
kindly for each other care;
every member feel its share.

Be strengthened as they pray.

And hallowed wishes rise,
While round these peaceful walls the storm
Of earth-born passion dies.

With each other and the Lord,
And possess, in sweet communion,
Joys which earth cannot afford.
