SABBATH · 8.8.8.8
Scripture
Psalm 92:1-2
Verse 1
Safely through another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
Verse 2
While we seek supplies of grace,
Through the dear Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciling face;
Take away the sin and shame;
From our worldly cares set free
May we rest this day in Thee.
From our worldly cares set free
May we rest this day in Thee.
Verse 3
Here we come Thy name to praise,
May we feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
Verse 4
May the gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief to all complaints;
Thus may all our Sabbaths be
Till we we rise to reign with Thee.
Thus may all our Sabbaths be
Till we we rise to reign with Thee.

Written by the author of 'Amazing Grace' to celebrate the Sabbath day.
