The Sabbath

The Sabbath is coming
The Sabbath is near–
The sun has gone down
The Sabbath is here!

The Sabbath is holy
It gives the weary rest
The Sabbath is special
The Sabbath is a test

The Sabbath is a break
From all our busy lives.
The Sabbath gives us time,
Time to recognize–

Who blessings come from
Who made earth and heaven
Who worked for six days
And rests on the seventh

On Sabbath there’s peace
In the midst of a storm
On Sabbath there’s joy
Wherever you call home

On Sabbath God calls
Saying, “Come be with Me.
The Sabbath is a sign
Between you and Me!”
