    Story Behind the Song
    The admonitions in the Bible concerning the Sabbath make me believe that it is deeper and more sacred than most of us realize or relate to. The Sabbath can truly be kept only if the Lord of the Sabbath is dwelling in the heart of the believer.

    Lyrics
    Lord help me to honor Your Sabbath
    My mind keeps a-wandering away
    To all the affairs of my business
    The things that concern me each day.
    Come fill me with sweet revelations
    Of glorious, Heavenly love.
    And help me to raise up my vision
    To see Your great wonders above.

    I feel Your warmth in the sunshine.
    I see Your great love in the rain
    That washes the hills and the valleys
    Providing a harvest of grain.
    I learn of Your strength from the forest
    And mountains that point to the sky.
    Oh, Jesus, I need your dear presence
    To be everlastingly nigh.

    The thousands of beautiful flowers
    They tell of an Artist divine
    While watching the squirrels and the chipmunks
    What calm satisfaction is mine
    The joy of the mockingbird's singing
    The peace of the waterfall's song
    They tell of the glories of Heaven,
    With Jesus is where I belong.

    And thank you for brothers and sisters
    You knew that I needed their love.
    I long for that family reunion
    We'll have in Your kingdom above.
    And, Jesus, I know when I see You
    I'll wonder why did I delay
    To faithfully work for Your kingdom
    And live like a Christian each day
