Now I’m Resting, Sweetly Resting
On My Jesus’ Loving Breast;
How He Soothes My Troubled Spirit,
Sinks Me Into Perfect Rest.
Jesus, Ever Precious Jesus,
I Am Leaning, Ever Leaning On Thy Breast;
Closely Folded To Thy Bosom,
Let Me Ever, Loving Savior, Sweetly Rest.
Closely Folded To Thy Bosom,
Let Me Evermore Abide,
Safely Sheltered From The Tempest,
Till I Pass Beyond The Tide.
Then I’ll Gladly Join The Chorus,
Sung By Angel Choirs Above,
Sweetly Singing All Thy Praises,
In The Realms Of Endless Love.
