Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #12 (1890) First Line: Welcome, sweet day of rest Lyrics: 1 Welcome, sweet day of rest,
That saw the Lord arise!
Welcome to this reviving breast,
And these rejoicing eyes!
2 The King himself comes near,
And feasts his saints to-day;
Here may we sit and see him here,
And love, and praise, and pray.
3 One day, amid the place
Where my dear Lord hath been,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Within the tents of sin.
4 My willing soul would stay
In such a frame as this,
And sit and sing herself away
To everlasting bliss. Topics: The Lord's Day; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath Languages: English Tune Title: LISBON
