Hymn 24: O Thou God of Heaven

Olorun wa Orun

  1. O Thou God of Heaven
    Thou had six days to work,
    To create all there are on earth,
    And rest on seven day

  2. Thou ask all to observe
    Sabbath Day in reverence
    And thy great anger be assessed
    On those who disobey

  3. Our great, great ancestors
    Died in sin and darkness
    They remained pagan devotees
    They never know thy laws.

  4. O Lord we assemble
    To fulfil thy biddings,
    After six days of work and toils
    We come to worship Thee.

  5. This day is all holy
    It is meet to take rest,
    To worship in Thy church O Lord,
    To hear Thy holy World.

  6. Still yet a rest remains
    For all the disciples,
    Of the blessed great Son of God,
    Oh take us to Thy rest. Amen.
