Hymnal: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns #CLXIII (1793) Hymnal Title: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns First Line: Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord we love Lyrics: 1 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love;
But there's a nobler rest above;
To that our labouring souls aspire
With ardent pangs of strong desire.
2 No more fatigue, no more distress;
Nor sin nor hell shall reach the place;
No groans to mingle with the songs,
Which warble from immortal tongues.
3 No rude alarms of raging foes;
No cares to break our long repose;
No midnight shade, no clouded sun,
But sacred, high, eternal noon.
4 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love,
But there's a nobler rest above;
To that our laboring souls aspire
With ardent pangs of strong desire. Topics: Lord's Day Languages: English
