2. DON’T FORGET THE SABBATH
Don’t forget the Sabbath, The Lord our God hath blest,
Of all the week the brightest, Of all the week the best;
It brings repose from labor, It tells of joy divine,
Its beams of light descending, With heavenly beauty
shine.
Refrain
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.
3. DON’T FORGET THE SABBATH
Keep the Sabbath holy, And worship Him today,
Who said to His disciples, “I am the living way;”
And if we meekly follow Our Savior here below,
He’ll give us of the fountain Whose streams eternal flow.
Refrain
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.
4. DON’T FORGET THE SABBATH
Day of sacred pleasure! Its golden hours we’ll spend
In thankful hymns to Jesus, The children’s dearest Friend;
O gentle loving, Savior, How good and kind Thou art,
How precious is Thy promise To dwell in every heart!
Refrain
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day,
Welcome, welcome, ever welcome,
Blessed Sabbath day.
8. HE LEADEATH ME
He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.
Refrain
He leadeth me, he leadeth me,
by his own hand he leadeth me;
his faithful follower I would be,
for by his hand he leadeth me.
9. HE LEADEATH ME
Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom,
sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom,
by waters still, o’er troubled sea,
still ’tis his hand that leadeth me.
Refrain
He leadeth me, he leadeth me,
by his own hand he leadeth me;
his faithful follower I would be,
for by his hand he leadeth me.
10. HE LEADEATH ME
And when my task on earth is done,
when by thy grace the victory’s won,
e’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
since God through Jordan leadeth me.
Refrain
He leadeth me, he leadeth me,
by his own hand he leadeth me;
his faithful follower I would be,
for by his hand he leadeth me.
