English Lyrics
Verse 1
Don't forget the Sabbath, The Lord our God hath blest, Of all the week the brightest, Of all the week the best; It brings repose from labor, It tells of joy divine, Its beam of light descending, With heavenly beauty shine.
Chorus
Welcome, welcome, Ever welcome, Blessed Sabbath day, Welcome, welcome, Ever welcome, Blessed Sabbath day.
Verse 2
Keep the Sabbath holy, And worship Him today, Who said to His desciple, 'I am the living way;' And if we meekly follow Sour Sevior here below, He'll give us of the fountain Whose streams eternal flow.
Verse 3
Day of sacred pleasure! It golden hours we'll spend In thankful hymns to Jesus, The children's dear Friend; O gentle loving, Savior, How good and kind Thou art, How precious is Thy promise To dwell in every heart!
