From The Hymnal ~ Near To The Heart of God

Saturday, July 23, 2011

He gathers the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart. Isaiah 40:11

The chorus of this hymn is one I sing often in my private praise and worship time with the Lord.

Near To The Heart of God

There is a place of quiet rest,
near to the heart of God;
a place where sin cannot molest,

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
sent from the heart of God,
hold us who wait before thee
near to the heart of God.

There is a place of comfort sweet,
near to the heart of God;
a place where we our Savior meet,
near to the heart of God.

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
sent from the heart of God,
hold us who wait before thee
near to the heart of God.

There is place a place of full release,
near to the heart of God;
a place where all is joy and peace,
near to the heart of God.

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
sent from the heart of God,
hold us who wait before thee
near to the heart of God.
