Christian Worship The Sabbath Of The Soul.

O Father! though the anxious fear
May cloud to-morrow’s way,
No fear nor doubt shall enter here,-
All shall be thine to-day.

We will not bring divided hearts
To worship at thy shrine;
But each unworthy thought departs,
And leaves this temple thine.

Then sleep to-day, tormenting cares,
Of earth and folly born;
Ye shall not dim the light that streams
From this celestial morn.

To-morrow will be time enough
To feel your harsh control;
Ye shall not violate this day,
The Sabbath of the soul.
