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.
