The sun rolls down the distant west

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #551 (1886) Lyrics: 1 The sun rolls down the distant west, Soft twilight steals abroad To welcome in the day of rest, The Sabbath of our Lord. 2 This holy day let us begin With songs of praise to God, Who pardons all our guilt and sin, Through Jesus' precious blood. 3 Now in this tranquil hour we lay All worldly cares aside, And hallow God's most holy day, Though friends or foes may chide. 4 'Tis not to seek the world's applause That we from labor rest; We strive to keep God's holy laws, And he these moments blessed.
