The Sabbath

Hymnal: MSCC1879 #95 (1879) First Line: A Sabbath well spent Lyrics: 1 A Sabbath well spent Brings a week of content, Giving strength for the toils of tomorrow; But a Sabbath profan'd, Whatsoe'er may be gain'd, Is a certain forerunner of sorrow. 2 Six days shalt thou toil, Bringing fruits from the soil, And with mind, heart and strength shalt thou labor; But the seventh is bless'd, As a day of sweet rest, And for worship of God, the Creator. 3 O best of the seven, Blessed foretaste of heaven Thou dost bring with each pleasant returning; Let us work, wait and pray, Till the glorious day, When we're called from life's weary sojourning. Languages: English Tune Title: [A Sabbath well spent]
