Rest From My Journey
Troubles and trials
In this life are many
And long is the road
That leads me home
Often I find
I know not the way
As on my journey
I travel along
But I fret not or fear not
For I’ve a companion
Who’s always beside me
And the way to him is known
My trust is in him
Like a flock to their Shepard
To find them green pasture
And lead them back home
Yes I’ll trust in Jesus
He’s gone on before me
He’s fought all my battles
He’s defeated my foes
A mansion is waiting
For this weary traveler
There will be rest from my journey
There will be rest for my soul
Often I find
That I grow so weary
As the mountains I climb
Grow higher it seems
And just when I feel like
I can’t walk no farther
He picks me up in his arms
And carries me
Yes I’ll follow Jesus
For he’s gone on before me
He’s fought all my battles
He’s defeated my foes
A mansion is waiting
For this weary traveler
There will be rest from my journey
There will be rest for my soul
