The Sabbath

By Edson Carpenter

O BLESSED day of peaceful rest, Of all the days supremely blessed! From worldly care and labor free, We come, O Lord, to worship Thee!
When great creation's work was done, And man his race had but begun, God did ordain this day of rest; By Him 'twas sanctified and blessed.
May all the world honor the Lord, Love and obey His holy word; With His law written in their heart, From His commandments ne'er depart.
Mountains shall crumble and decay, Heaven and earth shall pass away: But still unchanged God's word shall be, The same to all eternity.
EDSON CARPENTER.
