- 1Safely thro' another week,God has bro’t us on our way;Let us now a blessing seek,Waiting in His courts today:Day of all the week the best,Soon will come eternal rest;Day of all the week the best,Soon will come eternal rest.
- 2While we seek supplies of grace,Thru the dear Redeemer’s name,Show Thy reconciling face,Take away our sin and shame;From our worldly cares set free,May we rest this day in Thee;From our worldly cares set free,May we rest this day in Thee.
- 3Here we come Thy name to praise:May we feel Thy presence near;May Thy glory meet our eyes,While we in Thy house appear;Here afford us, Lord, a tasteOf our everlasting feast;Here afford us, Lord, a tasteOf our everlasting feast.
- 4May Thy gospel’s joyful soundConquer sinners, comfort saints;May the fruits of grace abound,Bring relief to all complaints;Thus may all our worship prove,Till we join the church above;Thus may all our worship prove,Till we join the church above.
