Author: J. S. B. Monsell Hymnal: Redemption Songs #45 (1937) Meter: 5.4.5.4 D Lyrics: 1 Rest of the weary,
Joy of the sad;
Hope of the dreary,
Light of the glad;
Home of the stranger,
Strength to the end;
Refuge from danger,
Saviour and Friend!
2 Pillow where, lying,
Love rests its head;
Peace of the dying,
Life of the dead;
Path of the lowly,
Prize at the end;
Breath of the holy,
Saviour and Friend!
3 When my feet stumble,
I to Thee cry;
Crown of the humble,
cross of the high;
When my steps wander,
Over me bend,
Truer and fonder,
Saviour and Friend!
4 Ever confessing
Thee, I will raise
Unto Thee blessing,
Glory, and praise:
All my endeavour,
World without end,
Thine to be ever,
Saviour and Friend1
