Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: We seek a rest beyond the skies,
In everlasting day;
Through floods and flames the passage lies,
But Jesus guards the way:
The swelling flood, and raging flame,
Hear and obey His word;
Then let us triumph in His name,
Our Savior is the Lord. Used With Tune: CAMP SAKIMA Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 3
