Rest, Blessed Rest
Author: Mary D. James Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #162b (1885) Hymnal Title: Gospel Praise Book. First Line: O blessed, glorious hope Refrain First Line: O rest, blessed rest, in the home of the blest Lyrics: 1 O blessed, glorious hope!
The summons soon will come:
“My child, thy toils are o’er; come up,
And rest in thy sweet home!”
Chorus:
O rest, blessed rest, in the home of the blest;
O rest, blessed rest, in the home of the blest,
Where no sorrow can come, and the pilgrim at home
Shall rest, sweetly rest evermore.
2 This tiresome strife will cease,
Life’s conflicts soon be o’er;
The weary ones shall rest in peace
On the Elysian shore. [Chorus]
3 Look up, poor pilgrims, see
That city bright and fair,
Where many lovely mansions be—
We’ll find our rest up there! [Chorus]
4 Within those pearly gates
Our loved and lost we’ll find;
What untold bliss our souls awaits
When with our dear ones joined! [Chorus]
Languages: English Tune Title: [O blessed, glorious hope]
