O Where Shall Rest Be Found? (EN 5472)

EN 5472 O Where Shall Rest Be Found?

Heb.4.11

Versi Version 1

1

O where shall rest be found,

Rest for the weary soul?

’Twere vain the ocean’s depths to sound,

Or pierce to either pole.

2

The world can never give

The bliss for which we sigh;

’Tis not the whole of life to live,

Nor all of death to die.

3

Beyond this vale of tears,

There is a life above,

Unmeasured by the flight of years,

And all that life is love.

4

There is a death, whose pang

Outlasts the fleeting breath:

O what eternal horrors hang

Around the second death!

5

Lord God of truth and grace,

Teach us that death to shun;

Lest we be banished from Thy face,

And evermore undone.

6

Here would we end our quest:

Alone are found in Thee,

The life of perfect love—the rest

Of immortality.
