The Soul's Resting-Place

Not what these hands have done
Can save this guilty soul;
Not what this toiling flesh has borne
Can make my spirit whole.

Thy work alone, O Christ,
Can ease this weight of sin;
Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God,
Can give me peace within.
"THIS IS THE RECORD,
THAT GOD HATH
GIVEN TO US
ETERNAL LIFE,
AND THIS LIFE
IS IN HIS SON.
HE THAT HATH THE SON
HATH LIFE:
AND HE THAT HATH NOT
THE SON OF GOD,
HATH NOT LIFE."
1 John 5:11, 1211And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. (1 John 5:11‑12).
