Sweetly Dawns the Sabbath Morning

Sweetly dawns the Sab­bath morn­ing

On the world

so full of care;

Bidding man for­get his la­bor

Calling to the house of pray­er.

O sweet and strong

His saints among

We sing to God our Sab­bath song

Our Sa­bbath song

our Sab­bath song

We raise to Christ our Sa­bbath song.

’Tis the day when man’s Re­deem­er

Rose tri­umph­ant o’er the grave;

Sealing thus His work com­plet­ed

Telling thus His pow­er to save.

Then loud and long

to Christ so strong

To save the lost

we raise our song

Our Sab­bath song

our Sab­bath song

We raise to Christ our Sab­bath song.

’Tis the day whose rest and glad­ness

Show what all my life should be;

Yielding all by faith to Je­sus

Finding Je­sus all in me.

O how I long

in Christ made strong

To sing each day faith’s Sab­bath song

Faith’s Sab­bath song

faith’s Sab­bath song

I’d sing each day faith’s Sab­bath song.

’Tis the day whose calm

so ho­ly

Shadows forth the bet­ter rest

Where the crown­èd saints are sing­ing

With their Lord

su­preme­ly blest.

’Twill not be long

till ’mid that throng

We sing th’eter­nal Sab­bath song

Heav’n’s Sab­bath song

Heav’n’s Sab­bath song

We’ll sing th’eter­nal Sab­bath song.
