But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings;
and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

CHRIST IN HIS WORD DRAWS NEAR
1.
Christ in His Word draws near;
Hush, moaning voice of fear,
He bids thee cease;
With songs sincere and sweet-
Let us arise, and meet-
Him who comes forth to greet-
Our souls with peace.
2.
Rising above thy care,
Meet Him as in the air,
O weary heart;
Put on joy’s Sabbath dress;
Lo, as He comes to bless,
Quite from thy weariness-
Set free thou art.
3.
For works of love and praise-
He brings thee summer days,
Warm days and bright;
Winter is past and gone,
Now He, salvation’s Sun,
Shineth on every one-
With mercy’s light.
4.
From the bright sky above,
Clad in His robes of love,
’Tis He, our Lord!
Dim earth itself grows clear-
As His light draweth near;
O let us hush and hear-
His holy Word.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
