Hymn/Song Information

Come close to the Saviour thy loving




Come close to the Savior,
thy loving Redeemer,
O sorrowing heart oppressed
(sorely oppressed);
Life’s journey is dreary,
thy spirit is weary;
O come unto Him and rest.

Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest,
Folding thy wings like a dove,
Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest,
Safe in the arms of His love.



Come close to the Savior,
He calleth thee gently,
Draw near to thy Father’s throne
(thy Father’s throne);
His eyes will behold thee,
His mercy enfold thee,
Why carry thy grief alone?

Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest,
Folding thy wings like a dove,
Peacefully, tranquilly, tenderly rest,
Safe in the arms of His love.
