Neale Appears in 643 hymnals Topics: Living His Life Rest in Christ; Living His Life Rest in Christ; Living His Life Rest in Christ First Line: Art thou weary, art thou languid Lyrics: 1 Art thou weary, art thou languid, Art thou sore distrest? "Come to Me," saith One, "and, coming, Be at rest." 2 Hath He marks to lead me to Him, If He be my guide? "In His feet and hands are wound prints, And His side." 3 Is there diadem, as monarch, That His brow adorns? "Yes, a crown, in very surety, But of thorns." 4 If I find Him, if I follow, What my portion here? "Many a sorrow, many a labor, Many a tear." 5 If I still hold closely to Him, What hath He at last? "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan past." 6 If I ask Him to receive me, Will He say me nay? "Not till earth and not till heaven Pass away." 7 Finding, following, keeping, struggling, Is He sure to bless? "Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs, Answer, Yes." Amen. Used With Tune: STEPHANOS

Calm in the hour of buoyant health, Calm in the hour of pain, Calm in my poverty or wealth, Calm in my loss or gain; 4. Calm in the sufferance of wrong, Like Him who bore my shame; Calm 'mid the threat'ning, taunting throng, Who hate Thy holy name; 5. Calm as the ray of sun or star, Which storms assail in vain, Moving unruffled thro' earth's war, Th' eternal calm to gain. Used With Tune: LAMBETH
