RCCG HYMN 173

The Lord's Own Hallow'd Day of Rest

"Six days shall thou labour" - Exo. 20:9

THE LORD'S DAY 5 VERSES

VERSE 1

The Lord's own hallow'd day of rest
O day most beautiful and bright:
A day given to us by God
For us, a day to rest therein.

VERSE 2

Six days He provided for us
To do all that we have to do;
The seventh day He set aside,
It is God's hallow'd day of rest.

VERSE 3

Let us forsake our vain pursuits
Our daily duties for six days,
Our work today, let hallow'd be,
Because the day belongs to God.

VERSE 4

Strength from above enerves us well
For service in the house of God;
Let us sing a joyful anthem,
On the Lord's day; this early morn.

VERSE 5

Very early in the morning
On the Lord's hallowed day of rest
Let us raise a joyful chorus
And let us lift our hearts to pray.
