Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #381 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 In weariness and pain,
By sins and fears opprest,
I turn me to my Rest again,
My soul's eternal Rest:
2 The Lamb that died for me,
And still my load doth bear,--
To Jesus' streaming wounds I flee,
And find my quiet there.
3 Jesus, was ever grief,
Was ever love like Thine?
Thy sorrow, Lord, is my relief,
Thy life hath ransom'd mine.
4 Oh, may I rise with Thee,
And soar to things above,
And spend a blest eternity
In praise of dying Love. Topics: Christ our Rest; Christians their life and experience; Consolation; Faith In Christ; Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Goodness of God a ground of trust; Resignation Languages: English
