WELCOME IS THE LORD'S DAY

 

(Tune: Stand Up and Bless The Lord  #33  SM)

 

Welcome is the Lord's day

To a believer's eyes;

This day above all others blest

That saw our Lord arise.

 

While we no sabbaths keep

But that of faith in Christ,

We set aside this day to praise

Our God and Savior Christ.

 

The Lord Himself comes here

To meet His saints today.

Oh, let us now sit at His feet

To hear what He will say.

 

One day within God's house,

With Christ and His fam'ly,

Is better than ten thousand spent

In any other way.

 

When we have left this place,

Let us this frame retain:

To worship, trust, and walk with God

Until we meet again.
