Does The Gospel Word Proclaim
Rest For Those That Weary Be?
Then, My Soul, Put In Thy Claim—
Sure That Promise Speaks To Thee:
Marks Of Grace I Can Not Show,
All Polluted Is My Best;
But I Weary Am, I Know,
And The Weary Long For Rest.
Burdened With A Load Of Sin,
Harassed With Tormenting Doubt,
Hourly Conflicts From Within,
Hourly Crosses From Without;
All My Little Strength Is Gone,
Sink I Must Without Supply;
Sure Upon The Earth Is None
Can More Weary Be Than I.
In The Ark The Weary Dove
Found A Welcome Resting-Place;
Thus My Spirit Longs To Prove
Rest In Christ, The Ark Of Grace;
Tempest-Tossed I Long Have Been,
And The Flood Increases Fast;
Open, Lord, And Take Me In,
Till The Storm Be Overpast!
