"Day of Rest"

Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: Laudes Domini #13 (1890) Topics: The Lord's Day; Lord's Day; Lord's Day First Line: O day of rest and gladness 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 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. 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: Bp. Chr. Wordsworth Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #24a (1894) Meter: 7.6 D Topics: 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 Thou art a port protected From storms which round us rise; A garden intersected With streams of Paradise; Thou art a cooling fountain In life's dry dreary sand; From thee, like Pisgah's mountain, We view our promised land. 4 To-day 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. 5 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: [O day of rest and gladness]
