Another Six Days' Work Is Done
Author: Joseph Stennett; Anonymous Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 449 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Another six days’ work is done
Another Sabbath is begun;
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest,
Improve the day that God hath blest.
2. Come, praise the Lord, whose love assigns
So sweet a rest to weary minds;
Provides an antepast of Heaven
And gives this day the food of seven.
3. O that our thoughts and thanks may rise
As grateful incense to the skies!
And draw from Heaven that sweet repose
Which none but he who feels it knows.
4. A heavenly calm pervades the breast
Is the dear pledge of glorious rest,
Which for the Church of God remains,
The end of cares, the end of pains.
5. With joy, great God, Thy works we view,
In various scenes, both old and new;
With praise we think on mercies past,
With hope we future pleasure taste.
6. In holy duties let the day,
In holy comforts pass away;
The Sabbath thus we love to spend,
In hope of one which ne’er shall end. Used With Tune: RETREAT Text Sources: From the 14-stanza poem "On the Sabbath in his Works," 1732. The second stanza below is anonymous, and was added in Collection of Hymns Adapted to Public Worship, by John Ash and Caleb Evans (Bristol, England: 1769).

What Equal Honors Shall We Bring
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 179 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What equal honors shall we bring
To Thee, O Lord, our God, the Lamb,
When all the notes that angels sing
Are far inferior to Thy name?
2 Worthy is He that once was slain,
The Prince of Life that groaned and died,
Worthy to rise, and live, and reign
At His almighty Father’s side.
3 Honor immortal must be paid,
Instead of scandal and of scorn;
While glory shines around His head,
He wears a crown without a thorn.
4 Blessings forever on the Lamb,
Who bore the curse for wretched men!
Let angels sound His sacred name,
And every creature say, "Amen."
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Jesus Passion Scripture: Revelation 5:12 Used With Tune: RETREAT
