Ere Another Sabbath Close
"There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God." - Heb. 4:9
THE LORD'S DAY•
5 VERSES
VERSE 1
Ere another Sabbath close,
Ere again we seek repose,
Lord, our song ascends to Thee,
At Thy feet we bow the knee.
VERSE 2
For the mercies of the day;
For this rest upon our way,
Thanks to Thee alone be giv'n
Lord and King of earth and heav'n.
VERSE 3
Cold our services have been;
Pray'rs and praises stain'd with sin;
But Thou canst and wilt forgive
By Thy grace alone we live.
VERSE 4
Whilst this thorny path we tread,
May Thy love our footsteps lead:
When our journey here is past,
May we rest with Thee at last.
VERSE 5
May our earthly Sabbaths prove
Foretastes of our joy above;
While our pilgrim steps we bend
To the rest, which knows no end.
