Lord, I believe a rest remains
To all Thy people known;
A rest where pure enjoyment reigns,
And Thou art loved alone.
To all Thy people known;
A rest where pure enjoyment reigns,
And Thou art loved alone.
2
A rest, where all our soul’s desire
Is fixed on things above;
Where fear and sin and grief expire,
Cast out by perfect love.
Is fixed on things above;
Where fear and sin and grief expire,
Cast out by perfect love.
3
Oh, that I now the rest might know,
Believe, and enter in;
Now, Savior, now the power bestow,
And let me cease from sin.
Believe, and enter in;
Now, Savior, now the power bestow,
And let me cease from sin.

Remove this hardness from my heart,
This unbelief remove;
To me the rest of faith impart,
The Sabbath of Thy love.
This unbelief remove;
To me the rest of faith impart,
The Sabbath of Thy love.

I would be Thine, Thou know’st I would,
And have Thee all my own;
Thee, O my all-sufficient Good,
I want, and Thee alone.
And have Thee all my own;
Thee, O my all-sufficient Good,
I want, and Thee alone.
