Another Six Days' Work

Author: J. Stennett Hymnal: Christ in Song #430 (1908) Topics: Hymns for Worship The Rest Day; Hymns for Worship The Rest Day First Line: Another six days' work is done Lyrics: 1 Another six days' work is done, Another Sabbath is begun; Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest, Improve the day that God has blessed. 2 Come, bless the Lord, whose love assigns So sweet a rest to weary minds; A blessed antepast is giv'n, On this day more than all the sev'n. 3 O that our thoughts and thanks may rise As grateful incense to the skies, And draw from Christ that sweet repose Which none but he who feels it knows. 4 This heav'nly calm within the breast Is the best pledge of glorious rest, Which for the church of God remains, The end of cares, the end of pains.

Dear Father, Lord of humankind

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #451 (1997) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Topics: Rest Lyrics: 1 Dear Father, Lord of humankind, forgive our foolish ways; reclothe us in our rightful mind; in purer lives thy service find, in deeper reverence, praise. 2 In simple trust like theirs who heard, beside the Syrian sea, the gracious calling of the Lord, let us, like them, without a word rise up and follow thee. 3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee, O calm of hills above, where Jesus knelt to share with thee the silence of eternity, interpreted by love. 4 With that deep hush subduing all our words and works that drown the tender whisper of thy call, as noiseless let thy blessing fall as fell thy manna down. 5 Drop thy still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of thy peace. 6 Breathe through the heats of our desire thy coolness and thy balm; let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; speak through the earthquake, wind and fire, O still small voice of calm.
