God took six days, and created
earth and moon the stars and sun
On the seventh day, He rested
from the work that He had done
Then He blessed it,
made it holy as a gift for every man
To remind us where we came from
and just how this world began

Holy day purified, set apart, sanctified
Enter in to joy divine,
in a temple made of time

See Him worship on the Sabbath
as His weekly custom was
Feel the fury of the rabbis,
for He would not heed their laws
So they killed Him on a hillside
as the sun began to fade
But He even kept the Sabbath
as they laid Him in the grave

Holy day purified, set apart, sanctified
Enter in to joy divine,
in a temple made of time

Oft forsaken and forgotten,
desecrated and profaned
But the sacred fourth commandment
is still valid and unchanged
Hear the Father gently calling
"If you love Me, heed each one,
Not for merit or salvation,
but because you love My Son."

Holy day purified, set apart, sanctified
Enter in to joy divine,
in a temple made of time

Holy day purified, set apart, sanctified
Enter in to joy divine, in a temple made of time
You will find joy divine,
in this temple made of time
