hymnal 43 1 O day of rest and gladness, O day of joy and light, O balm of care and sadness, most beautiful, most bright; On Thee the high and lowly, through ages joined in tune, Sing Holy, holy, holy, to the great God Triune. 2 Today on weary nations the heavenly manna falls; To holy convocations the silver trumpet calls Where gospel light is glowing with pure and radiant beams, and living water flowing with soul refreshing streams. 3 New graces ever gaining from this our day of rest we reach the rest remaining to spirits of the blest To Holy Ghost be praises, to Father and to Son The Church her voice up raises to Thee, blest Three in One.
