And His forgiving love
Far as the east is from the west
Doth all our guilt remove.

To endless years endure;
And children's children ever find
Thy words of promise sure. Languages: English

The prophets swell the immortal song;

Thus earth below, and heaven above,
Resound Thy glory and Thy love.

And vanquish'd all our foes;
An now He pleads our cause above,
And reaps the fruits of all His love.

Heaven with hosannas rings,
And earth in humbler strains,
Thy praise responsive sings:
Worthy the Lamb, that once was slain,
Through endless years to live and reign!

Another Sabbath is begun;
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest,
Improve the day Thy God has blessed.

So sweet a rest to wearied minds;
Provides an antepast of heaven,
And gives this day the food of sev'n.

As grateful incense to the skies;
And draw from heaven that sweet repose
Which none, but he who feels it, knows.
4 With joy, great God! Thy works we view
In various scenes, both old and new;
With praise we think of mercies past,
With hope we future pleasures taste.

In holy pleasures pass away:
How sweet a Sabbath thus to spend,
In hope of one that ne'er shall end. Languages: English

Still on the theme to dwell.

My God, Thy boundless love I praise
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #61 (1870) Topics: Praise hymns of genearl praise Lyrics: 1 My God, Thy boundless love I praise,
How bright on high its glories blaze,
How sweetly bloom below!
It streams from thy eternal throne;
Through heaven its joys forever run,
And o'er the earth they flow.
2 It robes in cheerful green the ground,
And pours its flowery beauties round,
Whose sweets perfume the gale;
Its bounties richly spread the plain,
The blushing fruit, the golden grain,
And smile on every vale.
3 But in Thy gospel see it shine
With grace and glories more divine,
Proclaiming sins forgiven,
There faith, bright cherub, points the way
To realms of everlasting day,
And opens all her heaven.
4 Then let the love that makes me blest,
With cheerful praise inspire my breast,
And ardent gratitude;
And all my thoughts and passions tend
To thee, my Father and my Friend,
My soul's eternal good. Languages: English

Amid this little company;
To them unveil my smiling face,
And shed my glories round the place."

From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this night with Thee.

Let us feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.

Conquer sinners, comfort saints;

Bring relief for all complaints;

The heav'nly manna falls;

The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.

From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining

When grace hath well refined my heart,
When doubts and fears no more remain
To break my inward peace again.

How languid are its flames.
2 Accept our faint attempts to love;
Our frailties, Lord forgive:
We would be like Thy saints above,
And praise Thee while we live.
3 Increase, O Lord, our faith and hope,
And fit us to ascend
Where the assembly ne'er breaks up,
The Sabbath ne'er shall end;
4 Where we shall breathe in heavenly air,
With heavenly lustre shine;
Before the throne of God appear,
And feast on love divine.
