New Sabbath 1. Welcome sweet day of rest, To God my thoughts arise; Welcome to this reviving breast, And these rejoicing eyes, And these rejoicing eyes. 2. The King Himself draws near, And feasts His saints today; Here we may sit, and see Him here, And love and praise and pray, And love and praise and pray. 3. One day in such a place, Where You, my God, are seen, Is sweeter than ten thousand days Where You have never been, Where You have never been. 4. My willing soul would stay In such a place as this, And sit and sing herself away To everlasting bliss, To everlasting bliss.
