’Tis the day whose calm, so holy
                                        
                                        Shadows forth the better rest,
                                        
                                        Where the crowned saints are singing
                                        
                                        With their Lord, supremely blest.
                                        
                                        ’Twill not be long, till ’mid that throng,
                                        
                                        We sing th’eternal Sabbath Song,
                                        
                                        Heav’n’s Sabbath song, Heav’n’s Sabbath song,
                                        
                                        We’ll sing th’eternal Sabbath song.
