The Sabbath

By Janette Bidwell

JANETTE BIDWELL
O’er the hills the morning sunlight Comes with warm and gentle ray, Like the smile of God’s approval Resting on this Sabbath day.
Let us gather to the temple Where the High and Holy One Comes to bless his earth’s children When the six days’ work is done.
Let us come with reverence, kneeling With bowed head and prayerful heart; Worshiping our great Redeemer, Gathered from the world apart.
As we leave the sacred portals, As we go upon our way, Let this quiet, reverent spirit Hover o’er us all the day.
And when evening’s deepening twilight Tells us that the day is gone, Let us thank God for his blessing Till th’ eternal Sabbath dawn.
