Sabbath Thoughts

Author: Rev. F. J. Mallett Hymnal: Fair as the Morning. Hymns and Tunes for Praise in the Sunday-School #107 (1891) Topics: Holy Sabbath First Line: Lord of heaven, Thee we praise Lyrics: 1 Lord of heaven, Thee we praise For the gift of Sabbath days; Fruitful may they ever be With devoted work for Thee! On this holy day of Thine May we feel Thy love divine, Causing hope and peace to bloom, As we journey toward home. 2 Give us, as the moments fly, Thoughts of Him who reigned on high, Who upon the cross was slain That Thy favor we might gain. Let each sower’s heart be blest, Finding labor sweetest rest; O may many heed their call, For Thy grace is free to all! 3 If we in Thy house appear, May our Saviour’s presence cheer; let the manna from on high Come to us in rich supply. Should the waves of trouble beat Loud and awful at our feet, On Thy Word we would rely: “I will guide thee with mine eye.” 4 May Thy name more hallowed by, In this land of liberty; Grant that all may love this day, And Thy blest command obey. Thus when Sabbaths all have fled, And we’re numbered with the dead, In the regions of the blest We shall know eternal rest. Languages: English Tune Title: [Lord of heaven, Thee we praise]

I'd plead his blood for guilt and sin, Till he should clease from every stain. 3 On him, whose glories fill the skies, I'd gaze and fix my wond'ring eyes, Copy his beauties on my heart, Till love transform in ev'ry part. 4 'Tis he can clothe my naked soul, And by a word can make we whole; Send peace and patience to the mind, And give a heart to God resign'd.
