Passing through another week,
|
|
| 1. | Passing through another week, |
| | God has granted us His aid; |
| | Let us now a blessing seek, |
| | On the day the Lord hath made; |
| | Day of all the week the best, |
| | Emblem of eternal rest. |
| 2. | While we pray for pard'ning grace, |
| | Through the dear Redeemer's name, |
| | Show Thy reconcilŠd face; |
| | Take away our sin and shame: |
| | >From our worldly cares set free, |
| | May we rest this day in Thee. |
| 3. | Here we come Thy name to praise, |
| | Let us 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. |
| 4. | May Thy gospel's joyful sound |
| | Conquer sinners, comfort saints; |
| | Make the fruits of grace abound, |
| | Bring relief for all complaints: |
| | Thus may all our Lord's Days prove, |
| | Till we meet the Lord above. |
