God of sabbath, Israel's Lord,
Thee we'll praise with one accord:
Hear our humble, earnest prayer,
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Now thy glory to us shew,
Give a taste of heav'n below :
Lord, to thee we bow in prayer,
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Now the captive sinners free,
Now declare thy jubilee;
Now accomplish this our prayer,
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Now the senseless sinner wound,
Let the strong man, armed, be bound :
Spread thy gospel, hear our prayer,
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Now thy word with power endue,
Let it wound and quicken too;
Make them fly to thee in prayer;
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Now let the thoughtless souls awake,
All their follies now forsake;
Answer, Lord, our daily prayer,
Haste the great sabbatic year.
Bring the joyful sabbath on,
Let the gospel-tidings run;
Then in ceaseless praise we'll sing,
Hallelujah to our King.
