In weariness and pain

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #254 (1899) Topics: Christ Rest in; Rest Lyrics: 1 In weariness and pain, By sins and fears opprest, I turn me to my Rest again, My soul's eternal Rest: 2 The Lamb that died for me, And still my load doth bear; To Jesus' streaming wounds I flee, And find my quiet there. 3 Jesus, was ever grief, Was ever love like Thine? Thy sorrow, Lord, is my relief, Thy life hath ransomed mine. 4 Oh, may I rise with Thee, And soar to things above, And spend a blest eternity In praise of dying Love. Amen.

The Sabbath

Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #358 (1844) Meter: 8.8.6 Topics: Rest for the Weary First Line: God thus commanded Jacob's seed Lyrics: 1 God thus commanded Jacob’s seed, When, from Egyptian-bondage freed, He led them by the way: “Remember, with a mighty hand I brought thee forth from Pharaoh’s land; Then keep my Sabbath Day.” 2 [In six days God made heaven and earth Gave all the various creatures birth, And from his working ceased; These days to labour he applied; The seventh he blessed and sanctified. And called the day of rest.] 3 To all God’s people now remains A Sabbatism, a rest from pains, And works of slavish kind; When tired with toil, and faint through fear, The child of God can enter here, And sweet refreshment find. 4 To this, by faith, he oft retreats; Bondage and labour quite forgets, And bids his cares adieu; Slides softly into promised rest, Reclines his head on Jesus’ breast, And proves the Sabbath true. 5 [This, and this only, is the way To rightly keep the Sabbath Day, Which God has holy made. All keepers that come short of this, The substance of the Sabbath miss, And grasp an empty shade.] Languages: English
