For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise,
And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

Hail! Sacred Day of Rest
1.
Hail! Sacred day of earthly rest,
from toil and trouble free!
Hail, quiet spirit, bringing peace-
and joy to me!
2.
A holy stillness, breathing calm-
on all the world around,
Uplifts my soul, O God, to Thee,
where rest is found.
3.
No sound of jarring strife is heard,
as weekly labours cease,
No voice, but those that sweetly sing-
sweet songs of peace.
4.
On all I think, or say, or do,
a ray of light divine-
Is shed, O God, this day by Thee,
for it is Thine.
5.
Accept, O God, my hymn of praise,
that Thou, this day, hast given,
Sweet foretaste of that endless day-
of rest in heaven.
A blessèd Seventh Day (Saturday) Sabbath, to all true believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
