Sweet Is The Sunlight After Rain,
And Sweet The Sleep Which Follows Pain,
And Sweetly Steals The Sabbath Rest
Upon The World’s Work-Wearied Breast.
Of Heaven The Sign Of Earth The Calm!
The Poor Man’s Birthright, And His Balm!
God’s Witness Of Celestial Things!
A Sun With Healing In Its Wings.
New Rising In This Gospel Time,
And In Its Sevenfold Light Sublime,
Blest Day Of God! We Hail Its Dawn,
To Gratitude And Worship Drawn.
O Nought Of Gloom And Nought Of Pride
Should With The Sacred Hours Abide!
At Work For God, In Loved Employ,
We Lose The Duty In The Joy.
Breathe On Us, Lord! Our Sins Forgive,
And Make Us Strong In Faith To Live:
Our Utmost, Sorest Need Supply,
And Make Us Strong In Faith To Die.
