Sweet is the work, my God, my King

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #528 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King, To praise thy name, give thanks, and sing; To show thy love by morning light, And talk of all thy truth at night. 2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest; No mortal cares should seize my breast; Oh, may my heart in tune be found, Like David's harp, of solemn sound. 3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord, And bless his works, and bless his word; Thy works of grace, how bright they shine! How deep thy counsels! how divine! 4 Lord, I shall share a glorious part When grace hath well refined my heart, And fresh supplies of joy are shed, Like holy oil, to cheer my head. 5 Then shall I see, and hear, and know All I desired or wished below; And every power find sweet employ In that eternal world of joy.
