Rest In God

How wise are God' s commands! How sure his precepts are! We cast our burdens on the Lord, And trust his constant care.

Beneath his watchful eye His saints securely dwell; The hand which bears all nature up Doth guard his children well.

Why should this anxious load Press down thy weary mind? Haste to thy heav' nly Father' s throne, And sweet refreshment find.

His goodness stands approved, Unchanged from day to day. We' ll drop our burdens at his feet, And bear a song away.
