This is the day which the Lord hath made.
Psalm 118:24.
Come, let us join with one accord
In hymns around the throne;
This is the day our risen Lord
Hath made and called his own.
2 This is the day which God has blessed,
The brightest of the seven,
Type of the everlasting rest
The saints enjoy in heaven.
3 Then let us in his name sing on,
And hasten on that day,
When our Redeemer shall come down,
And shadows pass away.
4 Not one, but all our days below,
Our hearts his praise employ;
And in our Lord rejoicing go
To his eternal joy.
C. Wesley.
