Author: | Myrtle H. Dorland (1920-1997) |
Tune: | TRENTHAM |
Composer: | Robert Jackson (1842-1914) |
1 We love Thy Sabbath, Lord,
And worship at Thy will;
Oh may these hours sweet peace afford
And deeper faith instill.
2 Thine angels sang for joy
Creation’s work to see;
We too, this day, would raise our hearts
In grateful praise to Thee.
3 Praise for Thy wondrous love,
That sealed this sacred day,
A sign that all may understand
We own Thy sovereign sway.
4 O great Creator King,
Through Thy redeeming grace,
Renew and sanctify our hearts
That we may see Thy face.
5 And with the white-robed throng,
Upon Mount Sion be,
And joyful sing our Sabbath song
Through all eternity.
