Kennedy, 1804-99 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: Comfort and Rest Lyrics: 1 Who trusts in God a strong abode In heav'n and earth possesses; Who looks in love to Christ above, No fear that heart oppresses. In you alone, Dear Lord, we own Sweet hope and consolation, Our shield from foes, our balm for woes, Our great and sure salvation. 2 Though Satan's wrath beset our path And worldly scorn assail us, While you are near, we shall not fear; Your strength will never fail us. Your rod and staff will keep us safe And guide our steps forever; Nor shades of death nor hell beneath, Our lives from you will sever. 3 In all the strife of mortal life Our feet will stand securely; Temptation's hour will lose its pow'r, For you will guard us surely. Our God, renew with heav'nly dew Our body, soul, and spirit Until we stand at your right hand Through Jesus' saving merit.

Where rest but on Thy faithful word? None ever called on Thee in vain, Give peace, O God, give peace again. 4 Where saints and angels dwell above All hearts are knit in holy love; O bind us in that heavenly chain, Give peace, O God, give peace again.

Author: William Chatterton Dix Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 261 hymnals Topics: Rest Lyrics: 1 "Come unto Me, ye weary, And I will give you rest." O blessed voice of Jesus, Which comes to hearts oppressed! It tells of benediction, Of pardon, grace, and peace, Of joy that hath no ending, Of love which cannot cease. 2 "Come unto Me, ye wanderers,, And I will give you light." O loving voice of Jesus, Which comes to cheer the night! Our hearts were filled with sadness, And we had lost our way; But He hath brought us gladness And songs, the break of day. 3 "Come unto Me, ye fainting, And I will give you life." O cheering voice of Jesus, Which comes to aid our strife! The foe is stern and eager, The fight is fierce and long; But Thou hast made us mighty And stronger than the strong. 4 "And whosoever cometh I will not cast him out." O welcome voice of Jesus, Which drives away our doubt; Which calls us, very sinners, Unworthy though we be Of love so free and boundless, To come, dear Lord, to Thee! Amen.

How happy every child of grace

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 384 hymnals Topics: Heaven Rest ; Rest Heavenly Lyrics: 1 How happy every child of grace, Who knows his sins forgiven! This earth, he cries, is not my place, I seek my place in heaven: A country far from mortal sight Yet, O by faith I see The land of rest, the saints' delight, The heaven prepared for me. 2 A stranger in the world below, I calmly sojourn here; Nor can its happiness or woe Provoke my hope or fear. Its evils in a moment end, Its joys as soon are past; But, O the bliss to which I tend Eternally shall last! 3 To that Jerusalem above With singing I repair; While in the flesh, my hope and love, My heart and soul, are there: There my exalted Saviour stands, My merciful High Priest, And still extends His wounded hands To take me to His breast.
