Sweet is the work, my God, my King
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 777 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King,
To praise thy name, give thanks and sing;
To show thy love by morning light,
And talk of all thy truth by night.
2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest;
No mortal cares shall seize my breast;
O, may my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp of solemn sound!
3 My heart shall triumph in the Lord
And bless his works and bless his word;
Thy works of grace how bright they shine!
How deep thy counsels, how divine!
4 When grace has purified my heart,
Then I shall share a glorious part;
And fresh supplies of joy be shed,
Like holy oil to cheer my head.
5 Then shall I see and hear and know
All I desired or wished below,
And every hour find sweet employ
In that eternal world of joy. Topics: Worship The Sabbath Used With Tune: ALWAY
Sweet is the work, my God, my King
This is the day of sacred rest
Author: Dr. H. Clarke Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 This is the day of sacred rest,
Which God hath sanctified and blessed,
When throned in majesty he stood,
And viewed his works, and called them good.
2 The heavenly host their harps employ,
The sons of God gave shouts of joy;
Through heaven and earth his praises rang,
The morning stars together sang.
3 Come, then, ye weary souls oppressed
Come and enjoy this holy rest;
Let humble songs like incense rise,
And prayer and praise ascend the skies. Topics: Worship The Sabbath Used With Tune: ALWAY
This is the day of sacred rest
Sweet is the Sabbath of the Lord
Author: F. S. Thorp Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the Sabbath of the Lord
To those who in his law delight;
Who love the precepts of his word,
And tread the narrow path of right.
2 This holy day Jehovah blessed
Ere sorrow, pain, or death were born,
And sanctified for man his rest
In glad creation's sinless morn.
3 It speaks of him whose wondrous might
The heavens and earth from nothing made;
Who formed the glorious orbs of light,
And the deep sea's foundations laid.
4 Its sacred hours, ye saints of God,
Remember with respect and love;
And through obedience to his word
Your love for your Creator prove.
5 And, when, immortalized we see
The treasures of the new earth bright,
God's holy Sabbath still shall be
A source of blessing and delight.

Sweet is the Sabbath of the Lord
The day of rest once more comes round
Author: Thomas Kelly Appears in 18 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 The day of rest once more comes round,
A day to all believers dear;
The silver trumpets seem to sound,
That call the tribes of Israel near.
2 Oh, hasten, Lord, the day when those
Who know thee here shall see thy face;
When suffering shall forever close,
And they shall reach their destined place. Topics: Worship The Sabbath Used With Tune: ALWAY
