Shacklock Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat #140 (1890) First Line: After the toil and turmoil Refrain First Line: Rest, sweet rest for the weary Lyrics: 1 After the toil and turmoil, After the strife is past, Cometh the peace God giveth,— Cometh the rest at last. Refrain: Rest, sweet rest for the weary, After the toil and pain, Sleep for the well-beloved, Crowns will the victors gain. 2 They who have fought and conquer’d, Waging a war with sin, Into the heavenly city Gladly will enter in. [Refrain] 3 Rest for the worn and weary, Shelter for all the lost, And in the blessed haven, Anchor the tempest-tossed. [Refrain] Tune Title: [After the toil and turmoil]
