Holy Sab­bath, day of rest;
By our great Re­deem­er blest;
When in ma­jes­ty He rose,
More than con­quer­or o’er His foes.

Refrain

Softly now we hear Him say,
Turn from earth­ly toil away;
Let your pray­ers to Hea­ven as­cend;
I will keep you to the end.

Day of wor­ship, hal­lowed hour,
May the Spir­it’s quick­en­ing pow­er
Give us grace and strength anew,
While our jour­ney we pur­sue.

Refrain

Holy Sab­bath, may thy light,
Pure and ho­ly, calm and bright,
Lift our hearts to God above,
Spring of joy, of life, of love.
