John 9:14: Jesus, the sabbath's Lord we praise

Religion

Jesus, the sabbath's Lord we praise,
Who carrying on His great designs,
His miracles of power and grace,
Redemption to creation joins,
He bids the soul with pardon bless'd
From its own works for ever cease.
Receives into His people's rest.
And keeps with Him in perfect peace.
