Text Based On Hebrews Chapter 4 (KJV)
For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

Grace Church (L.M.) Verses/Key/v4/F
Thine Earthly Sabbaths, Lord, We Love
1.
Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love,
but there’s a nobler rest above;
To that our longing souls aspire-
with ardent love and strong desire.
2.
In Thy blest kingdom we shall be-
from every mortal trouble free;
No groans shall mingle with the songs,
which warble from immortal tongues.
3.
No rude alarms of raging foes,
no cares to break the long repose,
No midnight shade, no clouded sun,
but sacred, high, eternal noon.
4.
O long expected day, begin;
dawn on this world of woe and sin:
Fain would we leave this weary road,
and sleep in death, and rest in God.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath, to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
