Come Rest Awhile




Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.” …
Mark 6:31 NLT


Come rest awhile from working through the night
From all men’s expectations
And your own machinations
Come rest in faith that sees beyond your sight

Come rest from sin and all regret’s demands
And from your shame, and every hidden doubt
The unanswered questions and fears that stalk about
Come find your rest in God’s Almighty hands

Come rest awhile when everything seems lost
Just as I slept when the boat was tossed
By that great storm - and the deck by waves was washed
Till at my Word the wind and sea were hushed
