Sabbath Morning Comes with Gladness

By James Gallacher (misspelled as James Gallaher)

1. Sabbath morn-ing comes with gladness, Little hearts are filled with joy; Father's blessings banish sadness, Pleasure's hope here without al-loy. See, with smil-ing ros-y fa-ces, Boys and girls clothed in their best, Hast-'ning on to fill their places, At their teacher's kind re-quest.

2. O'er the earth the sun is shin-ing, Truth sines in the Sab-bath school; List the Priesthood clear de-fin-ing Precepts like the golden rule. Let us each be un-ob-serv-ing Of the others' faults, and strive Good-ness to in-crease un-swerv-ing, Like the bees with-in a hive.

3. May our Father's care be o'er us, Guardian an-gels ev-er nigh, Thro' life's journey go be-fore us, Lead us to the courts on high. Prin-ci-ples our souls in-spir-ing, That were des-tined men to save, On-ward pro-gress, nev-er tir-ing, In the life be-yond the grave.
