Safely through another week

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #320 (1961) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 with repeat Topics: Longing for Christ and God Lyrics: 1 Safely through 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: Day of all the week the best, Emblem of eternal rest. 2 While we pray for pard'ning grace, Through 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, 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 feast, Here afford us, Lord, a taste Of our everlasting feast. 4 May thy gospel's joyful sound Conquer sinners, comfort saints; May the fruits of grace abound, Bring relief for all complaints: Thus may all our Sabbaths prove, Till we join the church above, Thus may all our Sabbaths prove, Till we join the church above.
