The Sabbath

Hymnal: MSCC1879 #95 (1879) Tune Title: [A Sabbath well spent] First Line: A Sabbath well spent Lyrics: 1 A Sabbath well spent Brings a week of content, Giving strength for the toils of tomorrow; But a Sabbath profan'd, Whatsoe'er may be gain'd, Is a certain forerunner of sorrow. 2 Six days shalt thou toil, Bringing fruits from the soil, And with mind, heart and strength shalt thou labor; But the seventh is bless'd, As a day of sweet rest, And for worship of God, the Creator. 3 O best of the seven, Blessed foretaste of heaven Thou dost bring with each pleasant returning; Let us work, wait and pray, Till the glorious day, When we're called from life's weary sojourning.

He Carries the Lambs in His Bosom

Hymnal: MSCC1879 #90 (1879) Tune Title: [A sweet, golden head had forgotten life's way] First Line: A sweet, golden head had forgotten life's way Lyrics: 1 A sweet, golden head had forgotten life's way, Asleep on its pillow of roses, Wee hands shutting close as if tired of play, Like buds which the summer discloses; The beautiful song of my birdie was still, And over the lips of my blossom The disciples lay white as the frost on the rill, When a spirit sang low in my spirit at will, "He carries the lambs in his bosom, He carries the lambs in his bosom." 2 There's never a lamb from love's sorrowful fold But wanders in fields that are vernal, And never a bud hid away from the cold But blooms in the summer eternal; When storms sweep the hill, and the night gathers deep, I think of my paradise blossom; I hear the same song for the weary that weep, The weakest are safest, for over the steep, "He carries the lambs in his bosom, He carries the lambs in his bosom."

Hail him, who saves you by his grace, And crown him Lord of all. 3 Babes, men and sires who know his love, Who feel your sin and thrall, Now join with all the hosts above, And own him Lord of all. Now join with all the hosts above, And own him Lord of all. 4 Let every kindred, every tribe, On this terrestrial ball, To him all majesty ascribe, And crown him Lord of all. 5 O that with yonder sacred throng, We at his feet may fall; We'll join the everlasting song, And crown him Lord of all.
