Lyrics: Isaac Watts
Tune: Seth Houston, 1998
Meter: L.M.D. (8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8)

Sweet is the work, my God, my king
To praise Thy name, give thanks and sing,
To show Thy love by morning light,
And talk of all Thy truth at night.

Sweet is the day of sacred rest,
No mortal care shall seize my breast.
O may my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp of solemn sound.
