112. Won’t You Go With Me?

1 There is a place where you may rest,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus;
Where you may be forever blest,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus.

Refrain:
Come, poor sinner, won’t you go with me?
Won’t you go with me, won’t you go with me?
Come, poor sinner, won’t you go with me?
There’s rest in the arms of Jesus.

2 There’s rest from all your guilty fears,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus;
There’s rest from all your toil and tears,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus. [Refrain]

3 There is a rest from ev’ry care,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus;
The contrite find sweet pardon there,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus. [Refrain]

4 There is a place where you may hide,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus;
And rest with all the sanctified,
‘Tis found in the arms of Jesus. [Refrain]
