How sweet is the Sabbath to me

Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How sweet is the Sabbath to me, The day when the Saviour arose! 'Tis heaven his beauties to see, And in his soft arms to repose; He knows I am weak and defiled, My life is but empty and vain; But if he will make me His child, I'll never forsake him again. 2 This day he invites me to come: How kindly he bids me draw near! He offers me heaven for home, And wipes off the penitent tear: He offers to pardon my sin, And keep me from every snare; To sprinkle and cleanse me within, And show me his tenderest care. 3 I cannot, I must not, refuse; His goodness has conquer'd my heart: The Lord for my portion I choose, And bid all my folly depart. How sweet is the Sabbath to me, The day my Redeemer arose! 'Tis heaven his beauties to see, And to his soft arms to repose. Used With Tune: DE FLEURY

Authors, composers, editors, etc.

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "The Sabbath" in The Boston Sunday School Hymn Book In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
