This is the day when Jesus broke
The powers of death and hell;
And shall I still wear Satan's yoke,
And love my sins so well?

To-day, with pleasure, Christians meet,
To pray, and hear thy Word;
And I would go with cheerful feet
To learn thy will, O Lord!

I'll leave my sport, to read and pray,
And so prepare for heaven:

O may I love this blessed day
The best of all the seven!

LORD, how delightful 'tis to see

A whole assembly worship thee!

At once they sing, at once they pray;

They hear of heaven, and learn the way.

I have been there, and still would go
'Tis like a little heaven below!
Not all my pleasure and my play
Should tempt me to forget this day.

O write upon my memory, Lord,
The text and doctrines of thy Word;
That I may break thy laws no more,
But love thee better than before!

With thoughts of Christ and things divine
Fill up this foolish heart of mine:
That, hoping pardon through his blood,
I may lie down, and wake with God.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

THOU shalt have no more Gods but me.
Before no idol bow thy knee.

Take not the Name of God in vain :

Nor dare the Sabbath-day profane.

5. Give both thy parents honour due.

Take heed that thou no murder do.

Abstain from words and deeds unclean :
Nor steal, though thou art poor and mean
Nor make a wilful lie, nor love it.

10. What is thy neighbour's dare not covet.
