Safely Through Another Week

 

VERSE 1

Safely through another week God has brought us on our way;

Let us now a blessing seek, on th’approaching Sabbath day;

Day of all the week the best, emblem of eternal rest,

Day of all the week the best, emblem of eternal rest.

 

VERSE 2

Mercies multiplied each hour through the week our praise demand;

Guarded by almighty power, fed and guided by His hand;

Though ungrateful we have been, only made returns of sin,

Though ungrateful we have been, only made returns of sin.

 

VERSE 3

While we pray for pardoning grace, through the dear Redeemer’s Name,

Show Thy reconciled face, shine away our sin and shame;

From our worldly cares set free, may we rest this night with Thee,

From our worldly cares set free, may we rest this night with Thee.

 

VERSE 4

Here we come Thy Name to praise, let us feel Thy presence near,

May Thy glory meet our eyes, while we in Thy house appear:

Here afford us, Lord, a taste of our everlasting feast,

Here afford us, Lord, a taste of our everlasting feast.

 

VERSE 5

When the morn shall bid us rise, may we feel Thy presence near:

May Thy glory meet our eyes, when we in Thy house appear:

There afford us, Lord, a taste of our everlasting feast,

There afford us, Lord, a taste of our everlasting feast.

 

VERSE 6

May Thy Gospel’s joyful sound conquer sinners, comfort saints;

May the fruits of grace abound, bring relief for all complaints;

Thus may all our Sabbaths prove till we join the church above,

Thus may all our Sabbaths prove till we join the church above!
