Lyrics |
1 Lo! the Sabbath morning breaking, breaking,
Fills the heart with music, joy and gladness;
Strains of pure devotion waking, waking,
Let us join the chorus of praise to God.
Chorus:
While the cheerful bells are ringing, ringing,
Chiming out their welcome loud and clear,
Throngs of happy children singing, singing,
Gather in the home they prize so dear.
[Repeat stanza]
2 Gentle, loving Saviour, bending, bending,
From a throne of mercy, grant thy blessing,
While our grateful voices blending, blending,
Swell the happy chorus of praise to Thee;
3 Where the golden harps are ringing, ringing,
In the sunny vales of Eden fair,
Where the pure in heart are singing, singing,
Jesus may we dwell forever there.
