236. Thy holy Sabbath, Lord

1 Thy holy Sabbath, Lord,
Thy people hail with joy;
And while we wait to hear thy word,
Let praise our hearts employ.

2 With sweet delight the day
That thou hast called thine own
We hail, and all our homage pay
To thine exalted throne.

3 O may thy saints be blessed!
Assist us while we pray;
May we enjoy a holy rest,
And keep the sacred day.

4 When Sabbaths here shall end,
And from these courts we move,
May we an endless Sabbath spend
In heavenly courts above.
