193. Sabbath Day of Sweet Refreshing

1 Sabbath day of sweet refreshing,
When the cares of earth depart,
Leaving Hope, in all her beauty,
Welcome guest within the heart.

Chorus:
Day of all the week the brightest,
Day of all the week the best,
When the weary soul draws nearer
To its home of peaceful rest.

2 Let us worship our Redeemer,
In the holy place of pray’r,
And believe, that thro’ the Spirit,
He will come and meet us there. [Chorus]

3 Let us thank Him for His mercy,
And His wondrous love adore,
While we try to serve Him better
Than we e’er have done before. [Chorus]
