Welcome, delightful morn, Thou day of sacred rest! I hail thy kind return; Lord, make these moments blest; From the low train of mortal toys, I soar to reach immortal joys, I soar to reach immortal joys. Now may the King descend, And fill His throne with grace; Thy scepter, Lord, extend, While saints address Thy face: Let sinners feel Thy quickening Word, And learn to know and fear the Lord, And learn to know and fear the Lord. Descend, celestial Dove, With all Thy quickening powers; Disclose a Savior’s love, And bless the sacred hours: Then shall my soul new life obtain, Nor Sabbaths be enjoyed in vain, Nor Sabbaths be enjoyed in vain. *** Words: By “Hayward,” in John Do­bell’s A New Se­lect­ion, 1806. Music: Das Lie­ben Bringt Groß Freud, Fried­rich Sil­cher, 1827, from a Swa­bi­an folk tune; ar­ranged by Low­ell Ma­son in his Car­mi­na Sac­ra, se­cond ed­i­tion, 1841.
