SABBATH WELCOME.

By J. M. Hopkins

BY J. M. HOPKINS.
TUNE: Herbert. Spiritual Songs, p. 64.
With joy we witness thy return, Best day of all the seven, Which calls our minds from earthly cares To worship God in heaven.
Hail, sacred day! How sweet those hours Of rest and holy calm; They bring to care-worn mortals here A peaceful, heavenly balm.
Hail, sacred day, when God comes near Our waiting souls to bless; When earth and heaven together meet, And each their love express.
Hail, sacred day! Lord grant us grace To ever loyal prove, To heed the mandates of thy will, And worship thee in love.
