New English Seventh Day Adventist Hymnal

Hymn 385 CROWNING JEWEL OF CREATION Lyrics

1
Crowning jewel of creation,
Blest and hallowed, sanctified;
Time and changes all transcending,
Shared forever, glorified.

CHORUS:
Blessed Sabbath made for man,
Gift from the Creator’s hand.

2
Sin and sickness, prayer and weeping
Cease at close of earthly days;
But Thy Sabbath is eternal,
Joyful thanks to Thee we raise!

3
Teach us Lord, in storm or sunshine
How to truly rest in Thee,
May Thy Sabbath peace enfold us
And our shelter ever be.
