I Am Resting Lord

Charles Price Jones • English

Primary Scripture: Colossians 2:10

Verse 1

I am resting, Lord, Thy promised grace upon, Not a hope have I beside; For my righteousness I trust what He has done, In His truth I'm sanctified:

Chorus

Yes, Thou alone art now my plea, I rest my case just now with Thee; My Wealth and Hope, my Rock and Stay, Keep me faithful, Saviour, I pray.

Verse 2

I have found at last what satisfied my soul, And produces peace within; 'Tis the faith of Christ that makes my spirit whole, And each moment keeps from sin.

Chorus

Yes, Thou alone art now my plea, I rest my case just now with Thee; My Wealth and Hope, my Rock and Stay, Keep me faithful, Saviour, I pray.

Verse 3

O the glorious rest I find in Him today! O the joyous victory! For His precious blood all sin doth wash away, And the truth gives liberty.

Chorus

Yes, Thou alone art now my plea, I rest my case just now with Thee; My Wealth and Hope, my Rock and Stay, Keep me faithful, Saviour, I pray.

Verse 4

O the precious hope now shining in my soul, Glorious hope of life and heav'n! What celestial scenes before my eyes unroll! What assurance to me giv'n!

Chorus

Yes, Thou alone art now my plea, I rest my case just now with Thee; My Wealth and Hope, my Rock and Stay, Keep me faithful, Saviour, I pray.
