Forever Here My Rest Shall Be

lyricist: Charles Wesley, 1740

Forever here my rest shall be

Close to Thy bleed­ing side;

This all my hope

and all my plea

For me the Sav­ior died!

My dy­ing Sav­ior

and my God

Fountain for guilt and sin

Sprinkle me ev­er in Thy blood

And cleanse

and keep me clean.

Wash me

and make me thus Thine own

Wash me

and mine Thou art

Wash me

but not my feet alone

My hands

my head

my heart.

The atone­ment of Thy blood ap­ply

Till faith to sight im­prove

Till hope shall in fru­ition die

And all my soul be love.

I do be­lieve

I now be­lieve

That Je­sus died for me;

And through His blood

His pre­cious blood

I shall from sin be free.
