We Rest on Thee

We rest on Thee

our shield and our de­fend­er!

We go not forth alone against the foe;

Strong in Thy strength

safe in Thy keep­ing ten­der

We rest on Thee

and in Thy name we go.

Strong in Thy strength

safe in Thy keep­ing ten­der

We rest on Thee

and in Thy name we go.

Yes

in Thy name

O Cap­tain of sal­va­tion!

In Thy dear name

all oth­er names above;

Jesus our right­eous­ness

our sure foun­da­tion

Our prince of glo­ry and our king of love.

Jesus our right­eous­ness

our sure foun­da­tion

Our prince of glo­ry and our king of love.

We go in faith

our own great weak­ness feel­ing

And need­ing more each day Thy grace to know:

Yet from our hearts a song of tri­umph peal­ing

We rest on Thee

and in Thy name we go.

Yet from our hearts a song of tri­umph peal­ing

We rest on Thee

and in Thy name we go.

We rest on Thee

our shield and our def­end­er!

Thine is the bat­tle

Thine shall be the praise;

When pass­ing through the gates of pear­ly splen­dor

Victors

we rest with Thee

through end­less days.
