O Day of Rest and Gladness

Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1855 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #137 (1957) Topics: Worship and Praise The Lord's Day Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness, O day of joy and light, O balm of care and sadness, Most beautiful, most bright; On thee the high and lowly, Through ages joined in tune, Sing "Holy, holy, holy," To the great God Triune. 2 On thee, at the creation, The light first had its birth; On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depths of earth; On thee our Lord victorious, The Spirit sent from heaven; And thus on thee, most glorious, A triple light was given. 3 Today on weary nations The heavenly manna falls; To holy convocations The silver trumpet calls, Where gospel light is glowing With pure and radiant beams, And living water flowing With soul-refreshing streams. 4 New graces ever gaining From this our day of rest, We reach the rest remaining To spirits of the blest; To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father and to Son; The Church her voice upraises To Thee, blest Three in One. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MENDEBRAS

Welcome, sweet day of rest

Hymnal: Hymnal #147 (1871) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Lord's Day and Public Worship Lyrics: 1 Welcome, sweet day of rest, That saw the Lord arise; Welcome to this reviving breast, And these rejoicing eyes! 2 The King Himself comes near And feasts His saints to-day; Here we may sit, and see Him here, And love, and praise, and pray. 3 One day of prayer and praise His sacred courts within, Is sweeter than ten thousand days Of pleasurable sin. 4 My willing soul would stay In such a frame as this, And wait to hail the brighter day To everlasting bliss.

The Day You Gave Us, Lord, Is Ended

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #161 (2018) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Lord's Day Evening Worship Lyrics: 1 The day you gave us, Lord, is ended, the darkness falls at your behest; to you our morning hymns ascended, your praise shall hallow now our rest. 2 We thank you that your church, unsleeping while earth rolls onward into light, through all the world her watch is keeping, and rests not now by day or night. 3 As o'er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day, the voice of pray'r is never silent, nor dies the strain of praise away. 4 The sun, that bids us rest, is waking our brethren 'neath the western sky, and hour by hour fresh lips are making your wondrous doings heard on high. 5 So be it, Lord; your throne shall never, like earth's proud empires, pass away; but stand and rule and grow forever, 'til all your creatures own your sway.

Hail! sacred day of earthly rest

Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #203 (1917) Topics: Sabbath (the Christian) Lord's Day Lyrics: 1 Hail! sacred day of earthly rest, From toil and trouble free: Hail! day of light, that bringest light And joy to me. 2 A holy stillness, breathing calm On all the world around, Uplifts my soul, O God, to Thee, Where rest is found. 3 No sound of jarring strife is heard, As weekly labours cease; No voice, but those that sweetly sing Sweet songs of peace. 4 On all I think, or say, or do, A ray of light divine Is shed, O God, this day by Thee, For it is Thine. 5 I hear the organ loudly peal, And soaring voices raise To Thee, their great Creator, hymns Of deathless praise. 6 All earthly things appear to fade As, rising high and higher, The yearning voices strive to join The heavenly choir. 7 For those who sing with saints below Glad songs of heavenly love, Shall sing when songs one earth have ceased With saints above. 8 Accept, O God, my hymn of praise, That Thou this day hast given Sweet foretaste of the endless day Of rest in heaven.
