Just Rest

Just Rest

When my soul is weighed with despair,
I rest gently on my Saviour’s breast.
Lying my head and finding comfort there.

For in His arms, I find sweet rest.
When weariness grips my every bone,
 I know His love will lead me home.
God will never let me stray.
No matter how far I choose to run
His care will guide me every day.

He’ll heal my knees, dry every tear,
His arms fold around me as one.
Replacing my pain with joy so near.
He lifts me when I fall,
He covers me in His radiant grace,
And gently answers my call.
Kisses the sorrow from my face.

The Master’s hands are my guide.
I surrender all, find peace divine,
So, I rest assured, in Him abide,
For in His care, proper rest is mine.

When my soul is weighed with despair,
I rest gently on my Savior’s breast.
