Text Based On Exodus Chapter 20 (KJV)
For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is,
and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day,
and hallowed it.

LORD, THY SABBATH CHURCH IS WAKING
1.
Lord, Thy Sabbath Church is waking,
Out of slumber far and near,
Knowing that the day is breaking,
When the Bridegroom will appear.
Waking up to claim the treasure,
With Thy precious life-blood bought;
And to trust in fuller measure,
All Thy wondrous death hath wrought.
2.
Praise to Thee for saved ones yearning,
O’er the lost and wandering throng;
Praise for voices daily learning,
To upraise the glad new song.
Praise to Thee for sick ones hasting,
Now to touch Thy garment’s hem;
Praise for souls believing-tasting,
All Thy love has won for them.
3.
Set on fire our heart’s devotion,
With the love of Thy dear name;
Till o’er every land and ocean,
Lips and lives Thy Word proclaim.
Fix our eyes on Thy returning,
Keeping watch till Thou shalt come,
Loins well girt, lamps brightly burning,
Then, Lord, take Thy servants home.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
