I will Give You Rest
Author: Mrs. Thos. May Peirce Hymnal: Joyful Sound #14 (1889) Hymnal Title: Joyful Sound First Line: Oppressed by countless foes without Lyrics: 1 Oppressed by countless foes without,
And lurking foes within,
We search creation’s bounds in vain
For rest from toil and sin.
The voice of him whose name is Truth,
Invites the weary breast:
“Come unto me, come unto me,
And I will give you rest.”
2 For God—our God!—so loved the world,
He gave his Son to save;
To bear each sad infirmity;
And weep beside a grave.
Our great High Priest in glory now
Invites the laden breast:
“Come unto me, come unto me,
And I will give you rest.”
3 Dear Lord, we come: a contrite heart
Thou wilt not turn away;
Help us to learn thy holy will,
And follow in thy way.
We hear thy voice,—it charms the soul,
And calms the troubled breast,—
“Come unto me, come unto me,
And I will give you rest.”
4 Safe sheltered from the tempter’s wiles
The inward life shall grow
In grace and knowledge of our Lord,
So heaven shall dawn below.
Toil ends in triumph when these words
Shall thrill the anxious breast:—
“Well done, thou good and faithful one,
Now enter into rest.” Languages: English Tune Title: [Oppressed by countless foes without]

William J. Kirkpatrick
1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Hymnal Title: Joyful Sound Composer of "[Oppressed by countless foes without]" in Joyful Sound William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia.
