Je-sus, I am rest-ing, rest-ing
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am find-ing out the great-ness
Of Thy lov-ing heart.
Thou hast bid me gaze up-on Thee,
As Thy beau-ty fills my soul,
For by Thy trans-form-ing pow-er
Thou has made me whole.
Jesus, I am rest-ing, rest-ing
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am find-ing out the great-ness
Of Thy lov-ing heart.
O how great Thy lov-ing-kind-ness,
Vast-er, broad-er than the sea!
O how mar-vel-ous Thy good-ness
Lav-ished all on me!
Yes, I rest in Thee, Be-lov-ed,
Know what wealth of grace is Thine,
Know Thy cer-tain-ty of prom-ise
And have made it mine.
Jesus, I am rest-ing, rest-ing
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am find-ing out the great-ness
Of Thy lov-ing heart.
Simp-ly trust-ing Thee, Lord Je-sus,
I be-hold Thee as Thou art,
And Thy love, so pure, so change-less,
Sat-is-fies my heart;
Sat-is-fies its deep-est long-ings,
Meets, sup-plies its ev-ery need,
Com-pass-eth me round with bless-ings:
Thine is love in-deed.
Jesus, I am rest-ing, rest-ing
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am find-ing out the great-ness
Of Thy lov-ing heart.
Ev-er life Thy face up-on me
As I work and wait for Thee;
Rest-ing 'neath Thy smile, Lord Je-sus,
Earth's dark shad-ows flee.
Bright-ness of my Fa-ther's glo-ry,
Sun-shine of my Fa-ther's face,
Keep me ev-er trust-ing, rest-ing,
Fill me with Thy grace.
Jesus, I am rest-ing, rest-ing
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am find-ing out the great-ness
Of Thy lov-ing heart.
