Jesus! I am Resting

1. Jesus! I am resting, resting
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am finding out the greatness
Of Thy loving heart.
Thou hast bid me gaze upon Thee
And thy beauty fills my soul,
For, by Thy transforming power,
Thou hast made me whole.

CHORUS

Jesus! I am resting, resting
In the joy of what Thou art:
I am finding out the greatness
Of Thy loving heart.

2. Oh, how great Thy lovingkindness,
Vaster, broader than the sea!
Oh, how marvellous Thy goodness,
Lavished all on me!
Yes, I rest in Thee Beloved,
Know what wealth of grace is Thine,
Know Thy certainty of promise,
And have made it mine.

3. Simply trusting Thee, Lord Jesus,
I behold Thee as Thou art,
And Thy love so pure, so changeless,
Satisfies my heart.
Meets, supplies its ev’ry need
Compasseth me round with blessings:
Thine is love indeed!

4. Ever lift Thy face upon me,
As I work and wait for Thee;
Resting ‘neath Thy smile, Lord Jesus,
Earth’s dark shadows flee.
Brightness of my Father’s glory,
Sunshine of my Father’s face,
Keep me ever trusting, resting,
Fill me with Thy grace.
