Representative Text

1 Lord, on this Sabbath-day of rest
We lift to thee our earnest praise,
Obedient to the high behest
Which thou didst give to guide our ways.

2 We thank thee for the holy light
That from thy law shines full and clear,
Directing our weak steps aright
Through earth's low path of doubt and fear.

3 For Jesus, too, whom thou didst send
To teach the way of grace and truth,
We bow before thy throne, and blend
The thanks of age, the love of youth.

4 O, write thy word on every heart!
In us let thy pure Spirit live,
That his rich presence may impart
Such peace as thou alone canst give.
