Sweet Sabbath school, place dear to me

Representative Text

1 Sweet Sabbath School, place dear to me,
Where e'er through life I roam,
My heart will often turn to thee,
My own dear Sabbath home.

Chorus:
Sweet Sabbath School, place dear to me,
Where e'er thro' life I roam,
My heart will often turn to thee,
My own dear Sabbath home.

2 Delightful work, young souls to win,
And turn the rising race,
From the deceitful paths of sin
To seek redeeming grace. [Chorus]

3 Thy spirit, Father, on us shed,
And bless this good design,
The honors of thy name be spread,
Be all the glory thine. [Chorus]
