KIN DAY

KIN DAY (Doctrine & Covenants 59)

The Sabbath is a family time –
The Jubilee of days –
When Labor rests in Liberty –
When Prayer pours out in Praise –

When Gratitude says, “This is good” –
Unspotted from the world –
When Righteousness brings broken hearts –
Contrite before the Lord –

When cheerful souls confess His hand –
Delighting in glad things:
Obedience – the Sacrament –
Thanksgiving – Offerings.

Each Sunday is millennial –
A consecrated place –
A Temple for His countenance –
A longing for His face.
