Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Laudes Domini #569 (1890) First Line: This is not my place of resting Lyrics: 1 This is not my place of resting,
Mine's a city yet to come;
Onward to it I am hasting
On to my eternal home.
2 In it all is light and glory;
O'er it shines a nightless day:
Every trace of sin's sad story,
All the curse, hath passed away.
3 There the Lamb, our Shepherd, leads us
By the streams of life along,
On the freshest pastures feeds us,
Turns our sighing into song.
4 Soon we pass this desert dreary,
Soon we bid farewell to pain;
Never more are sad or weary,
Never, never sin again! Topics: The Rest of Heaven; Heaven; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: VESPER
