Holy Sabbath Day of Rest

1Holy Sabbath day of rest,
By our Master richly blest,
God created and divine,
Set aside for holy time.

RefrainYes, the holy Sabbath rest,
By our God divinely blest,
It to us a sign shall be
Throughout all eternity.

2Seek not pleasures of this earth,
With its folly, noise, and mirth,
There are better things in store,
O cover on the other shore.

3As the Sabbath draweth on
Friday eve at set of sun,
Christian household then should meet,
Sing and pray at Jesus' feet.

4Asking Him for saving grace,
Also victory in the race,
And to help us by His pow'r,
To keep holy every hour.
