1. Now may

O. W.

he who from the dead Brought the Shepherd of the sheep,

Je sus Christ, our King and Head, All our souls in safety keep!

2 May he teach us to fulfill

What is pleasing in his sight;
Perfect us in all his will,

And preserve us day and night.

3 To that dear Redeemer's praise,

Who the covenant sealed with blood,

Let our hearts and voices raise

Loud thanksgivings to our God.

77. (Lord's Day.)

DAY OF REST AND GLADNESS. 7s & 6s, or II. 6.

O. W.

1. O day of rest and glad - ness,

day of joy and light,

balm of care and sadness, Most beautiful, most bright;

On

thee, the high and low ly, Through a ges join'd in tune,

DAY OF REST AND GLADNESS. Concluded.

Sing, Holy, holy, holy, To the great God

Tri - une.

2 On thee, at the creation,

The light first had its birth;
On thee, for our salvation,

Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee, our Lord victorious

The Spirit sent from heaven,
And thus on thee, most glorious,
A triple light was given.

3 Thou art a port protected

From storms that round us rise;
A garden intersected

With streams of Paradise;
Thou art a cooling fountain

In life's dry dreary sand;
From thee, like Pisgah's mountain,
We view our promised land.

4 To-day on weary nations

The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations

The silver trumpet calls,
Where Gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
5 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest;
To Holy Ghost be praises,

To Father, and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises

To thee, blest Three in One.
