O Day Of Rest And Gladness,
O Day Of Joy And Light.
O Balm Of Care And Sadness,
Most Beautiful, Most Bright,
On Thee The High And Lowly
Before The Eternal Throne
Sing Holy, Holy, Holy,
To The Great Three In One!
On Thee, At The Creation,
The Light First Had Its Birth;
On Thee For Our Salvation
Christ Rose From Depths Of Earth;
On Thee Our Lord Victorious
The Spirit Sent From Heaven;
And Thus On Thee Most Glorious
A Triple Light Was Given.
Thou Art A Cooling Fountain
In Life’s Dry Dreary Sand;
From Thee, Like Pisgah’s Mountain,
We View Our Promised Land;
A Day Of Sweet Refection,
A Day Of Holy Love,
A Day Of Resurrection
From Earth To Things Above.
To-Day On Weary Nations
The Heavenly Manna Falls,
To Holy Convocations
The Silver Trumpet Calls,
Where Gospel-Light Is Glowing
With Pure And Radiant Beams,
And Living Water Flowing
With Soul-Refreshing Streams.
New Graces Ever Gaining
From This Our Day Of Rest,
We Reach The Rest Remaining
To Spirits Of The Blest;
To Holy Ghost Be Praises,
To Father, And To Son;
The Church Her Voice Upraises
To Thee, Blest Three In One.
