Resting in Jesus

Verse 1

I am resting in Jesus, hallelujah! I know That the blood of atonement makes me whiter than snow; I will trust in my Savior, and abide His control; For He loved me so dearly that He ransomed my soul.

Chorus

Oh, my rest is so sweet, As I sit at Thy feet; I am resting, dear Jesus, In Thy favor complete.

Verse 2

I am resting in Jesus, oh, how sweet are my years! He has banished my troubles, and removed all my tears; I am safe in His kingdom, and a heavenly calm Now abides in my bosom—glory be to the Lamb!

Verse 3

I am resting in Jesus, my Redeemer and Friend, And the peace of His kingdom shall endure without end; Oh, my soul is transported in His favor divine, And there’s music, sweet music in this bosom of mine.

Verse 4

I am resting in Jesus, what a blessed repose! I am living in triumph over death and all foes; I can smile at the tempest, hallelujah to God! I am free, and forever I will sing of the blood.
