Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: Laudes Domini #13 (1890) First Line: O day of rest and gladness Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee, the high and lowly,
Bending before the throne,
Sing, Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the Great Three in One.
2 To-day on weary nations
The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
3 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest,
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises
To thee, blest Three in One. Topics: The Lord's Day; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath Languages: English Tune Title: MENDEBRAS
