Welcome, sweet day of rest

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #34 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Lord's Day 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, amid the place Where Christ, my Lord, has been, Is sweeter than ten thousand days Of pleasure and of sin. 4 My willing soul would stay In such a frame as this, Till call'd to rise and soar away To everlasting bliss.

Holy, happy, heavenly day, Thou canst charm our grief away. 3 In the gladness of God's worship We will seek our joy to-day: It is then we learn the fulness Of the grace for which we pray; When the word of life is given, Like the Saviour's voice from heaven. 4 Let the day with Thee be ended, As with Thee it has begun; And Thy blessing, Lord, be granted, Till earth's days and weeks are done; That at last Thy servants may Keep eternal Sabbath day.

O day of rest and gladness,

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #41 (1870) Topics: 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, Bending before the throne, Sing, Holy, Holy, Holy, To the Great Three in One. 2 To-day on weary nations The heav'nly 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. 3 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.

O day of rest and gladness

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: The Hymnal #43a (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Lord's Day Lyrics: 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.

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: HODGES
