The New Sabbath School Hosanna ‎#129

129. Safely through another week

1 Safely through another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in his courts today,--
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.

2 While we seek supplies of grace
Through the dear Redeemer's name,
Show thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in thee.

3 As we meet, thy name to praise,
Let us feel thy presence near;
May thy glory meet our eyes
While we in thy house appear:
There 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 from all complains:
Thus let all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the Church above.
