#388Don't Forget the Sabbath

1
Don't forget the Sabbath, The Lord our God hath blest, Of all the week the brightest, Of all the week the best; It brings repose from labor, It tells of joy divine, Its beams of light descending, With heavenly beauty shine.
2
Keep the Sabbath holy, And worship Him today, Who said to His disciples, "I am the living way;" And if we meekly follow Our Savior, How Save for here below, He'll give us of the fountain Whose streams eternal flow.
3
Day of sacred pleasure! Its golden hours we'll spend In thankful hymns to Jesus, The children's dearest Friend; O gentle loving Savior, How precious is Thy promise To dwell in every heart!
