Crowning Jewel of Creation

Verse 1

Crowning jewel of creation,

Blest and hallowed, sanctified;

Time and changes all transcending,

Shared forever, glorified.

Verse 2

Sin and sickness, prayer and weeping

Cease at close of earthly days;

But Thy Sabbath is eternal,

Joyful thanks to Thee we raise!

Refrain

Blessed Sabbath made for man, Gift from the Creator's hand.

Verse 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.

Refrain

Blessed Sabbath made for man, Gift from the Creator's hand.
