“There remaineth a rest to the people of God.” Heb. 4. 9

1 Jesus, lead me by thy power
  Safe into the promised rest;
  Hide my soul within thy arms;
  Make me lean upon thy breast.

2 Be my guide in every peril,
  Watch me hourly, night and day;
  Else my foolish heart will wander
  From thy Spirit far away.

3 In thy presence I am happy;
  In thy presence I’m secure;
  In thy presence all afflictions
  I can easily endure.

4 In thy presence I can conquer,
  I can suffer, I can die;
  Far from thee, I faint and languish;
  O thou Saviour, keep me nigh.
