A Week Without the Sabbath
 
1. A week without the Sabbath is like a candle with no flame,
A week without the Sabbath, like a picture with no frame;
A week without the Sabbath is like a house that's not a home,
A week without the Sabbath, oh may it never come! 
 
2. A week without the Sabbath is like a harp without the strings,
A week without the Sabbath, like a bird that never sings;
A week without the Sabbath is like a bee without the flow'r,
A fruit that's always sour, a desert with no show'r. 
 
3. A week without the Sabbath is like a table with no legs,
A week without the Sabbath, like a chicken with no eggs;
A day without the sun, or like a night without the stars,
A job that's never done, a dresser with no draw'rs. 
 
4. The Sabbath is a blessing, it is the day of God's delight;
A time for pure refreshing, it's a beacon in the night;
It leads us to the Saviour, and at His feet we all are bless'd
With life, and love, and favor, how wonderful this rest!
