HYMN 47. S. M

1 Welcome, sweet day of rest,
That saw the Lord arise!
Welcome to this reviving breast,
And these rejoicing eyes!MIM 59.3

2 The King himself comes near,
And feasts his saints to-day;
Here we may sit and see him here,
And love, and praise, and pray.MIM 59.4

3 One day in such a place,
Where thou, my God, art seen,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Of pleasurable sin.MIM 59.5

4 My willing soul would stay
In such a frame as this,
And sit and sing herself away
To everlasting bliss.MIM 60.1
