Saviour, Thy Sacred Day
Is Subject To Thy Sway,
Made Thy Pleasure To Fulfil;
Thou, The Son Of Man, Alone
Canst, According To Thy Will,
Abrogate Or Change Thine Own.
The Love The Day Designed
A Blessing To Mankind;
But Thy More Abundant Grace,
Gospel Grace Unsearchable,
Bade The Jewish Feast Give Place,
Fixed The Christian Festival.
Lord Of The Hallowed Day,
Once More Thy Power Display;
Now Returning From Above,
Change It To That Heavenly Feast,
Sabbath Of Celestial Love,
Sabbath Of Eternal Rest.
