|
<p>Lord of the Sabbath, hear us pray,<br>
|
|
In this Your house, on this Your day;<br>
|
|
And own, as grateful sacrifice,<br>
|
|
The songs which from Your temple rise.</p>
|
|
<p>Now met to pray and bless Your Name,<br>
|
|
Whose mercies flow each day the same;<br>
|
|
Whose kind compassions never cease,<br>
|
|
We seek instruction, pardon, peace.</p>
|
|
<p>Your earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love,<br>
|
|
But there’s a nobler rest above;<br>
|
|
To that our laboring souls aspire<br>
|
|
With ardent hope and strong desire.</p>
|
|
<p>In Your blest kingdom we shall be<br>
|
|
From every mortal trouble free;<br>
|
|
No sighs shall mingle with the songs<br>
|
|
Resounding from immortal tongues.</p>
|
|
<p>No rude alarms of raging foes;<br>
|
|
No cares to break the long repose;<br>
|
|
No midnight shade, no waning moon,<br>
|
|
But sacred, high, eternal noon.</p>
|
|
<p>O long expected day, begin,<br>
|
|
Dawn on these realms of woe and sin!<br>
|
|
Break, morn of God, upon our eyes;<br>
|
|
And let the world’s true Sun arise!</p>
