Rest in Thee

lyricist: Edward Turney, 1861

Blessèd Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus

Thou who gav’st Thy­self for me

Leave me not in sin to wan­der;

Bid me come and rest in Thee.

Rest in Thee

rest in Thee

Bid me come and rest in Thee;

Rest in Thee

rest in Thee

Bid me come and rest in Thee.

Hope of all the meek and low­ly

Thou my hope and joy shalt be;

Blessèd Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus

Bid me come and rest in Thee.

Draw me from each sin­ful striv­ing;

From my­self

O set me free;

Blessèd Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus

Bid me come and rest in Thee.

Highest

pur­est

sweet­est plea­sure

Shall Thy serv­ice bring to me;

Blessèd Je­sus

bless­èd Je­sus

Bid me come and rest in Thee.
