Lord's Day Hymn
Eben E. Rexford • English
Primary Scripture: Isaiah 56:2
Verse 1
Again the Sabbath God has blest, To us returns with peace and rest; And to His courts we come to pay, Our tribute on the Lord’s own day.
Verse 2
Oh, blessed day, in which we turn Our hearts to God, and Heav’n, and learn The lesson of its holy calm, And worship Him, the great I am.
Verse 3
Today God seems so very near, He smiles, the shadows disappear, And in the sunshine of His love, Our hearts mount upward like the dove.
Verse 4
Hail, holy day, wherein may we Find foretaste of the rest to be, When heavn’s eternal Sabbath brings Fulfilment of God’s promisings.
