Author: Anon. Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #391 (1985) Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Welcome, welcome, day of rest, To the world in kindness given Lyrics: 1 Welcome, welcome, day of rest,
To the world in kindness given;
Welcome to this humble breast,
As the beaming light from heaven.
2 Day of calm and sweet repose,
Gently now thy moments run;
Balm to soothe our cares and woes,
Till our labor here is done.
3 Holy day that most we prize,
Day of solemn praise and prayer,
Day to make the simple wise,
O, how great thy blessings are!
4 Welcome, welcome, day of rest,
With thy influence all divine;
May thy hallowed hours be blessed
to this waiting heart of mine. Topics: Doctrines Sabbath Tune Title: PLEYEL'S HYMN
