Welcome, sweet day of rest
That saw the Lord arise;
Welcome sweet day which God hath blessed
With all thy sacred joys.
The Lord himself comes near,
To meet his saints to-day;
And we by faith may meet him here,
May love, and praise, and pray.
One day within the place
Where he by faith is seen,
Is better than ten thousand days
Of vanity and sin.
Oh, may we day by day,
The joy of faith possess;
And then exulting soar away,
To everlasting bliss.
