Hymns - Blest Day of Godt - Текст песни

Blest day of God, most calm, most bright,
The first, the best of days;
The laborer???s rest, the saint???s delight,
The day of prayer and praise.

My Savior???s face made thee to shine;
His rising thee did raise;
And made thee heavenly and divine
Beyond all other days.

The first-fruits oft a blessing prove
To all the sheaves behind;
And they the day of Christ who love,
A happy week shall find.

This day I must with God appear;
For, Lord, the day is Thine;
Help me to spend it in Thy fear,
And thus to make it mine.
