Barnes Hymnal: Junior Songs #62 (1892) First Line: The Sabbath comes, with holy light Refrain First Line: Remember, remember Lyrics: 1 The Sabbath comes, with holy light, And its rest we gladly greet: And unto all, on its peaceful wings, There is borne this message sweet. Chorus: Remember, remember, Remember the Sabbath day, And keep it holy, holy to the Lord, Remember the Sabbath day. 2 It calls for peace in heart and home, And for rest from toil and care: It calls for thanks, that are sweet to lift, For the blessings that we share. [Chorus] 3 It calls for joy and simple faith, As we meet to praise and pray: It calls for thought that will sweetly flow With the teachings of the day. [Chorus] 4 It calls for zeal in doing well, And for loving deed and word: It calls, in truth, for a day well spent In the service of the Lord.

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[The Sabbath comes with holy light]" in Jubilant Voices for Sunday Schools and Devotional Meetings William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878.

Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old.
