Resting on the faithfulness
of Christ our Lord;
Resting on the fulness
of His own sure word;
Resting on His wisdom,
on His love and power;
Resting on His covenant
from hour to hour.
Resting ‘neath His guiding hand
for untracked days;
Resting ‘neath His shadow
from the noontide rays;
Resting at the eventide,
beneath His wing,
In the fair pavilion
of our Saviour King.
Resting in the fortress
while the foe is nigh;
Resting in the lifeboat
while the waves roll high;
Resting in His chariot
for the swift, glad race;
Resting, always resting,
in His boundless grace.
Resting in the pastures,
and beneath the Rock;
Resting by the waters
where He leads His flock;
Resting, while we listen
at His glorious feet;
Resting in His arms of love—
oh, rest complete!
Resting and believing,
let us onward press;
Resting on Himself,
“the Lord our Righteousness!”
Resting and rejoicing,
let His saved ones sing—
“Glory, glory, glory be
to Christ our King!”
