Rest and Be Satisfied

Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Acceptance of Christ First Line: Once I was far from the haven of rest Refrain First Line: Then the dear Lord heard and answered my pray'r Lyrics: 1 Once I was far from the haven of rest, Out where life’s billows did o’er me roll, No refuge had I on the Savior’s breast, But I cried to Jesus to save my soul. Then the dear Lord heard and answered my pray’r, So I will rest and be satisfied there, Then the dear Lord heard and answered my pray’r, So I will rest and be satisfied there. 2 Once I was bending beneath a great load, Rough was the way which my tired feet pressed, But now I rejoice on the heav’nly road, For my Savior gives to my soul sweet rest. Jesus will help me each burden to bear, So I will rest and be satisfied there, Jesus will help me each burden to bear, So I will rest and be satisfied there. 3 So I will serve him as long as I live, Serve the dear Savior who died for me, A mansion to me he has promised to give, Where I forever with him may be. Soon up in heaven his glory I’ll share, Then I will rest and be satisfied there, Soon up in heaven his glory I’ll share, Then I will rest and be satisfied there. Used With Tune: [Once I was far from the haven of rest]

Well, the Redeemer's gone

Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: Worship accepted through Christ Lyrics: 1 Well, the Redeemer's gone, T' appear before our God, To sprinkle o'er the flaming Throne, With his atoning Blood. 2 No fiery Vengeance now, Nor burning Wrath comes down; If Justice calls for Sinners' Blood, The Saviour shews his own. 3 Before his Father's Eye Our humble Suit he moves, The Father lays his Thunder by, And looks, and smiles, and loves. 4 Now may our joyful Tongues Our Maker's Honour sing, Jesus the Priest receives our Songs, And bears 'em to the King. [5 We bow before his Face, And sound his Glories high, "Hosanna to the God of Grace, "That lays his Thunder by.] 6 "On Earth thy Mercy reigns, "And triumphs all above;" But, Lord, how weak are mortal Strains To speak immortal Love! [7 How jarring and how low, Are all the Notes we sing! Sweet Saviour tune our Songs anew, And they shall please the King.]
