<p>Hail to the Sabbath day!<br>
|
|
The day divinely given,<br>
|
|
When men to God their homage pay,<br>
|
|
And earth draws near to heaven.</p>
|
|
<p>Lord, in this sacred hour,<br>
|
|
Within Thy courts we bend,<br>
|
|
And bless Thy love, and own Thy power,<br>
|
|
Our Father and our Friend.</p>
|
|
<p>But Thou art not alone<br>
|
|
In courts by mortals trod;<br>
|
|
Nor only is the day Thine own<br>
|
|
When man draws near to God.</p>
|
|
<p>Thy temple is the arch<br>
|
|
Of yon unmeasured sky;<br>
|
|
Thy Sabbath, the stupendous march<br>
|
|
Of vast eternity.</p>
|
|
<p>Lord, may that holier day<br>
|
|
Dawn on Thy servants’ sight;<br>
|
|
And purer worship may we pay<br>
|
|
In heaven’s unclouded light.</p>
