Rest of the Weary

Verse 1

Rest of the weary, Joy of the sad; Hope of the dreary, Light of the glad; Home of the stranger, Strength to the end; Refuge from danger, Saviour and Friend!

Verse 2

Pillow where, lying, Love rests its head; Peace of the dying, Life of the dead; Path of the lowly, Prize at the end; Breath of the holy, Saviour and Friend!

Verse 3

When my feet stumble, I to Thee cry; Crown of the humble, Cross of the high; When my steps wander, Over me bend, Truer and fonder, Saviour and Friend!

Verse 4

Ever confessing Thee, I will raise Unto Thee blessing, Glory, and praise: All my endeavour, World without end, Thine to be ever, Saviour and Friend!
