Thine Earthly Sabbaths, Lord, We Love;
But There’s A Nobler Rest Above;
To That Our Laboring Souls Aspire,
With Ardent Pangs Of Strong Desire.
No More Fatigue, No More Distress,
Nor Sin Nor Death Shall Reach The Place;
No Groans To Mingle With The Songs
Which Warble From Immortal Tongues.
No Rude Alarms Of Raging Foes,
No Cares To Break The Long Repose;
No Midnight Shade, No Clouded Sun,
But Sacred, High, Eternal Noon.
O Long-Expected Day, Begin,
Dawn On These Realms Of Woe And Sin;
Fain Would We Leave This Weary Road,
And Sleep In Death, To Rest With God
