To the world in kindness given

by Anonymous

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 391.

Verse 1

To the world in kindness given; Welcome to this humble breast, As the beaming light from heaven.

Verse 2

Day of calm and sweet repose, Gently now thy moments run; Balm to soothe our cares and woes, Till our labor here is done.

Verse 3

Holy day that most we prize, Day of solemn praise and prayer, Day to make the simple wise, O, how great thy blessings are!

Verse 4

Welcome, welcome, day of rest, With thy influence all divine; May thy hallowed hours be blessed to this waiting heart of mine.
