Welcome, Delightful Morn

 

VERSE 1

Welcome, delightful morn,

Thou day of sacred rest!

I hail thy kind return;

Lord, make these moments blest;

From the low train of mortal toys,

I soar to reach immortal joys,

I soar to reach immortal joys.

 

VERSE 2

Now may the King descend,

And fill His throne with grace;

Thy scepter, Lord, extend,

While saints address Thy face:

Let sinners feel Thy quickening Word,

And learn to know and fear the Lord,

And learn to know and fear the Lord.

 

VERSE 3

Descend, celestial Dove,

With all Thy quickening powers;

Disclose a Savior’s love,

And bless the sacred hours:

Then shall my soul new life obtain,

Nor Sabbaths be enjoyed in vain,

Nor Sabbaths be enjoyed in vain.
