Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #308 (1926) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Safely thro' another week Lyrics: 1 Safely thro' another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
2 While we pray for pard'ning grace,
Thro' the dear Redeemer's Name,
Show Thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
3 Here we come, Thy name to praise,
Let us feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting rest.
4 May the gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints:
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we rest in Thee above.
Amen. Topics: Worship Prayer and Praise; Evening; Lord's Day; Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: DIX
