Text:Ere Another Sabbath's Close

379. Ere Another Sabbath's Close

1 Ere another Sabbath's close,
Ere again we seek repose,
Lord! our song ascends to thee;
At thy feet we bow the knee.

2 For the mercies of the day,
For this rest upon our day,
Thanks to thee alone be given,
Lord of earth, and King of heaven!

3 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.

4 Let these earthly Sabbaths prove
Foretastes of our joys above;
While their steps thy pilgrims bend
To the rest which knows no end.
