Representative Text

1 I am resting in the Lord,
Trusting on His gracious word;
Lost in wonder while I see
His amazing love to me.

Refrain:
I am resting in the Lord,
Trusting in His gracious word;
Glory now, by faith I see,
This is more than life to me.

2 Thro’ the Spirit’s pow’r Divine,
Sweetest comfort now is mine;
He has made my anchor sure,
On the Rock I stand secure. [Refrain]

3 In my hour of daily pray’r,
God is precious, God is there;
Nearer to His throne I come,
Nearer to my heav’nly home. [Refrain]

4 By affliction sorely tried,
Grace my heart has purified;
Grace has made me what I am,
Hallelujah to the Lamb. [Refrain]
