The Lord's Day

O Lord My Lord,
This is thy day,
the heavenly ordinance of rest,
the open door of worship,
the record of Jesus' resurrection
the seal of the sabbath to come,
the when saints militant and triumphant
unite in endless song.

I bless thee for the throne of grace,
that here free favour reigns;
that open access to it is through the blood of Jesus;
that the veil is torn aside and I can enter the holiest
and find thee ready to hear,
waiting to be gracious,
inviting me to pour out my needs,
encouraging my desires,
promising to give more than I ask or think.
