Another song...

He Will Give You Rest


Tired of walking alone in the dark
tired of being alone
of making ends meet
you're dead on your feet
and all you can see is a spark

The way in itself is endless
you go till you drop
but find you can't stop
'cause you hope somewhere there
you'll find kindness.

But, can't you see?
It's not where you'll be
at the end of this heart-yearning quest.
It's a balm for your soul
God's love makes you whole
In the end, He will give you sweet rest.

Don't look far behind
Love's not of that kind
you've known all your life it to be
Compassion is real
it's His love that you feel
it's what gives you the right to be free.

It's not what you see
it's not where you'll be
All God asks you to do is your best.
He'll show you the way
stay with Him and obey
In the end, He will give you sweet rest.
