Rest for the Weary

 
There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.” Hebrews 4:99There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. (Hebrews 4:9).
TO rest at last!
The peace of God receiving.
No more to sin, no more the Spirit grieving;
To rest at last!
To be at home!
The peace of God around us;
And in our hearts the love that sought and found us.
To be at home!
Thank God for rest.
For weary eyes the dawning;
For longing hearts the light of that glad morning.
Thank God for rest.
A little while
And He that shall come will come:
And heaven’s glad shout shall be our voice of welcome.
A little while.
But rest at last,
With Thee Lord Jesus dwelling,
And at Thy feet the love of ages telling.
Yes, rest at last.
Heyman Wreford.
When we think of him, we can truly add the words of the great Apostle Paul who could say. “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”
