A Peaceful Rest

I rest in You O’Lord

Your peace transcends all understanding

Your love endures forever

Your goodness gives life

Your faithfulness gives hope

Let me rest in You O’Lord

Let me set myself apart

To be part of something more

To encounter Jesus like I have never done before

To be still

To be filled

A Spirit of understanding

A Spirit of peace

That embodies what God intended for me and you

He never intended us to have stress and work

Out of sin

Came struggles

Came pain

Came restlessness

Came death

But my Jesus

Overcame death

So we may live everlasting lives

‘O death where is your victory?

Where is your sting?’

And on the seventh day God rested

May You fall afresh in me

I seek love

I seek joy

I seek peace

I seek rest

A peaceful rest

May I rest in You O’God
