Welcome, welcome, ever welcome
Blessed Sabbath day
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome
Blessed Sabbath day
Don't forget the Sabbath, the Lord our God hath blest
Of all the week the brightest, of all the week the best
It brings repose from labor, it tells of joy divine
Its beams of light descending, with heavenly beauty shine
Keep the Sabbath holy, and worship Him today
Who said to His disciples, "I am the living way;"
And if we meekly follow our Savior here below
He'll give us of the fountain whose streams eternal flow
Day of sacred pleasure! Its golden hours we'll spend
In thankful hymns to Jesus, the children's dearest Friend
O gentle loving, Savior, how good and kind Thou art
How precious is Thy promise to dwell in every heart!
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome
Blessed Sabbath day
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome
Blessed Sabbath day
