Where all is peace¤ful, calm and still,
I rest be¤neath His ¤care;
’Tis rest to know and do His will,
His joy and sor¤row ¤share.

Chorus:
How sweet is the rest of God,
Safe in the Shep¤herd’s ¤fold,
To hear His voice and feast up¤on
The wealth of His love un¤¤told.

My life is hid with Christ in God,
Deep hid¤den in His ¤heart;
I fol¤low in the path He trod,
We nev¤er¤more can ¤part.

A¤mid the surg¤ing tides of life,
With Him I on¤ward ¤go;
A¤mid the tur¤moil and the strife
His per¤fect peace I ¤know.

No more I walk in doubt and fear,
His light and love di¤¤vine
As¤sure my heart that He is near,
And tune¤ful praise is ¤mine.

I know that He will hold my hand,
And lead me all the ¤way,
Un¤til at last with Him I stand
In God’s e¤ter¤nal ¤day.
