Text Based On Hebrews Chapter 4
For he spake in a certain place of the seventh
day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh
day from all his works.
Remember The Sabbath !
We thank Thee, O Lord, for a Sabbath of rest;
A day of all others the brightest and best;
A day that observed and respected should be,
Twas made for Thy worship, ’tis sacred to Thee.
Refrain
Remember the Sabbath, throughout our broad land;
Remember the Sabbath, ’tis God's own command:
Transmitted from Sinai, in language divine;
“Six days shalt thou labour, the Sabbath is mine.”
Our fathers rejoiced in Thy Sabbath, O Lord;
They walked in Thy counsels, believed in Thy word;
They clung to the Bible, their staff and their guide,
And trusting Thy promise, in triumph they died.
Refrain
We thank Thee, O Lord, for a Sabbath of rest;
A day that so richly Thy presence hath blessed;
A day when our vigour and strength we renew,
While onward and upward, our path we pursue.
