O Day of Rest and Gladness Hymn 85
1st Stanza O day of rest and gladness, O day of joy and light, O balm of care and sadness, Most beautiful, most bright:
1st Stanza continued On thee, the high and lowly, Through ages joined in tune, Sing “Holy, Holy, Holy,” To the great God Triune.
2nd Stanza On thee, at the creation, The light first had its birth;
2nd Stanza continued On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depths of earth;
2nd Stanza continued On thee, our Lord, victorious, The Spirit sent from heav’n;
2nd Stanza continued And thus on thee, most glorious, A triple light was giv’n.
3rd Stanza Today on weary nations The heav’nly manna falls; To holy convocations, The silver trumpet calls,
3rd Stanza continued Where Gospel light is glowing With pure and radiant beams, And living water flowing With soul-refreshing streams.
Last Stanza New graces ever gaining From this our day of rest, We reach the rest remaining To spirits of the blest.
Last Stanza continued To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father, and to Son; The Church her voice up raises To Thee, blest Three in One.
Invocation & Gloria Patri Hymnal (inside front cover)
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;

Responsive Scripture Reading Psalm 111
1Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
6He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
