Sweet Rest in Jesus

Verse 1

In Jesus I’ve found a sweet rest, From sorrow, from toil, and from care; In Him I am happy and blest, For He all my burdens doth bear.

Chorus

Oh, how happy am I, With my Savior so nigh; I have found sweet rest On Jesus’ dear breast.

Verse 2

I came to the Lord for release, When burdened with guilt and with sin; He cleansed me and gave me His peace, The Spirit to witness within.

Verse 3

Though many the troubles I meet— He’ll keep me and help me along; I’ll sit at His glorified feet, For He is my joy and my song.

Verse 4

All glory and praise to Thy name; For what Thou didst suffer for me; For saving my soul when I came And gave myself up unto Thee.
