Its cares now flee away,
Let all things bow in reverence,
On this the Lord’s own day.

O praise and pray on this,
The Lord’s own day.

Their clear toned voices say:
Ye people, come and worship
On this, the Lord’s own day. [Refrain]

Why should our hearts delay
To greet the Lord of Heaven
On this His holy day? [Refrain]
