SAFELY through another week God hath brought us on our way; Let us now a blessing seek On the approaching Sabbath-day, Day of all the week the best, Emblem of eternal rest.

Mercies multiplied each hour Through the week our praise demand; Guarded by almighty power, Fed and guided by His hand; Though ungrateful we have been, Often made returns of sin.

While we pray for pardoning grace, In the great Redeemer's name, Show thy reconciled face, Shine away our sin and shame: From our worldly cares set free, May we rest this night with thee.

When the morn shall bid us rise, May we feel thy presence near: May thy glory meet our eyes, When we in thy house appear: There afford us, Lord, a taste Of our everlasting feast.

May thy gospel's joyful sound Conquer sinners, comfort saints; Make the fruits of grace abound, Bring relief for all complaints: - Such may all our Sabbaths prove, Till we join the church above!
