Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #561 (1886) Lyrics: 1 The light of Sabbath eve
Is fading fast away;
What record will it for us leave,
To crown the closing day?
2 Is it a Sabbath spent
Of fruitless time destroyed?
Or have these moments to us lent
Been sacredly employed?
3 To waste these Sabbath hours,
O may we never dare;
Nor desecrate with words of ours
These sacred days of prayer.
4 But may our Sabbaths here
Inspire our hearts with love;
And prove a blessed foretaste clear,
Of that sweet rest above. Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Tune Title: BOYLSTON
