Representative Text

1 God has shown His loving face
From His throne in heav’n above;
And I’ve found a resting-place,
In the shelter of His love.

Refrain:
I am resting, resting,
Resting, sweetly resting in His love;
I am resting in His love,
Resting in the shelter of His love.

2 When the cares of life oppress,
When the sky is dark above;
I can always find a rest,
In the shelter of His love. [Refrain]

3 O, if you were never blest,
With this peace from heav’n above;
There’s for you a wondrous rest,
In the shelter of His love. [Refrain]
