So Rest My Rest

Verse 1

You left within a rocky cave
My guilt that brought you to the grave
O Lord you are the doubters' friend
The Rock on which my confidence depends

Verse 2

O Prince of Life! One thing I know
That when I too in death lie low
The chains of sin that hold me down
Will be transfigured to a holy crown

Chorus

So rest my Rest your love has won
With your death my work is done
Your life my life and your rest my rest
On you my soul relies
With you my hope will rise

Verse 3

My Jesus King O day by day
Help me to watch to learn and pray
Because you died and rest I rest
My life in you will be forever blest
