There is an hour of peaceful rest
Author: Anon. Appears in 566 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 There is an hour of peaceful rest,
To mourning wanderers given;
There is a joy for souls distressed,
A balm for every wounded breast,
'Tis found alone in heaven.
2 There is a home for weary souls
By sin and sorrow driven,
When tossed on life's tempestuous shoals,
Where storms arise and ocean rolls,
And all is drear but heaven.
3 There Faith lifts up her tearless eye,
The heart no longer riven,
And views the tempest passing by,
The evening shadows quickly fly,
And all serene in heaven.
4 There fragrant flowers immortal bloom,
And joys supreme are given;
There rays divine disperse the gloom;
Beyond the dark and narrow tomb,
Appears the dawn of heaven. Topics: Death and Resurrection Used With Tune: PEACEFUL REST
There is an hour of peaceful rest
When darkness gathers round thy way
Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 When darkness gathers round thy way,
As fall the shades of even;
No star, with its mild, cheering ray,
To chase the gloom, our fears allay,
How sweet the light of heaven!
2 When toiling in the narrow way,
By persecution driven,
Beset with treacherous snares that lay
To lead our wayward feet astray,
How sweet the smiles of heaven!
3 When by earth's care and grief and woe
The anguished heart is riven,
And bitter tears of sorrow flow
No soothing balm found here below,
How sweet the joy of heaven!
4 And when our pilgrimage is o'er,
The blessed promise given;
When, borne on angels' wings we soar
To meet the Saviour we adore,
How sweet the home in heaven! Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Used With Tune: PEACEFUL REST
When darkness gathers round thy way
