Verse 1 ~ Safely through another week      God has brought us on our way; Let us now a blessing seek,      On thy approaching Sabbath day; Day of all the week the best,      Emblem of eternal rest, Day of all the week the best,      Emblem of eternal rest. Verse 2 ~ Mercies multiplied each hour      Through the week our praise demand; Guarded by Almighty power,      Fed and guided by His hand; Though ungrateful we have been,      Only made returns of sin, Though ungrateful we have been,      Only made returns of sin. Verse 3 ~ While we pray for pardoning grace,      Through the dear Redeemer’s name, Show Thy reconciled face,      Shine away our sin and shame; From our worldly cares set free,      May we rest this night with Thee, From our worldly cares set free,      May we rest this night with Thee. Verse 4 ~ When the morn shall bid us rise,      May we feel Thy presence near: May Thy glory meet our eyes,      When we in Thy house appear: There afford us, Lord, a taste      Of the everlasting feast, There afford us, Lord, a taste      Of the everlasting feast. Verse 5 ~ May Thy Gospel’s joyful sound      Conquer sinners, comfort saints; May the fruits of grace abound,      Bring relief for all complaints; Thus may all our Sabbaths prove      Till we join the church above, Thus may all our Sabbaths prove      Till we join the church above!
