LyicsWELCOME, 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.
Now may the King descend
And fill his throne with grace;
The scepter, Lord, extend,
While saints address thy face;
Let sinners feel thy quickening word,
And learn to know and fear the Lord.
