Into His Rest

by Marlena Tanya Muchnick (Baker) and Gabriel Burgess, ©2001

In pride I turned my back on God
and chose to shun the iron rod.
But sin brought misery and strife,
no peace or joy refreshed my life.

Into His rest, freed from all doubt,
heart open now from inside out.
Into His rest, nothing to hide,
I come to Him arms open wide.

Long have I faltered so full of doubt,
allowing pride to lock me out.
But prayer upon that sacred name
awakes my heart, consumes all shame.

Into His rest, freed from all doubt,
heart open now from inside out.
Into His rest, nothing to hide,
I come to Him arms open wide.

I kneel repentant, my life's restored,
merciful Savior, my pain's no more.
Thy healing balm of peace sublime,
Thy glorious love transcends all time.

Into His rest, freed from all doubt,
heart open now from inside out.
Into His rest, nothing to hide,
I come to Him arms open wide.

Moroni 7:3
