Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.668
First Line: Resting on the faithfulness of Christ our Lord,
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.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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, [rest complete !
Resting in His arms of love----oh,
5 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 !
