Another Six Days' Work

Another six days’ work is done,
Another Sabbath is begun;
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest
Improve the day that God has blessed



Come, bless the Lord, whose love assigns,
So sweet a rest to weary minds;
A blessed antepast is giv’n,
On this day more than all the sev’n.



O that our thoughts and thanks may rise,
As greatful incense to the skies,
And draw from Christ that sweet repose,
Which none but he who feels it knows.



This heav,nly calm within the breast,
Is the best pledge of glorious rest;
Which for the church of God remain,
The end of cares, the end of pains.
