Lyics

Another six days' work is done;

Another day of rest begun,

Return, my soul, enjoy the rest;

Improve the day thy God hath blest.



O that our thoughts and thanks may rise

As grateful incense to the skies;

And draw from heaven that sweet repose

Which none but he that feels it knows.



This heavenly calm within the breast

Is the dear pledge of glorious rest,

Which for the Church of God remains,

The end of cares, the end of pains.
