Author: Hayward Hymnal: Christ in Song #387 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: Welcome, delightful morn Lyrics: 1 Welcome, delightful morning,
Thou day of sacred rest;
I hail thy kind return;
Lord, make these moments blest.
From the low train of mortal toys
I soar to reach immortal joys,
I sour to reach immortal joys.
2 Now may the King descend,
And fill his throne of grace;
Thy scepter, Lord, extend,
While saints address thy face;
Let sinners feel thy quick'ning word,
And learn to know and fear the Lord.
3 Descend, celestial Dove,
With all thy quick'ning pow'rs;
Disclose a Saviour's love,
And bless these sacred hours;
Then shall my soul new life obtain,
Nor Sabbath-days be passed in vain. Topics: Hymns for Worship The Rest Day; Hymns for Worship The Rest Day Languages: English Tune Title: LISCHER
