Author: Annie Wittemeyer Hymnal: The Morning Star #60 (1877) Scripture: Hebrews 4:3 First Line: I have entered the valley of blessing so sweet Refrain First Line: Oh, come to this valley of blessing so sweet Lyrics: 1 I have entered the valley of blessing so sweet,
And Jesus abides with me there;
And His Spirit and blood make my cleansing complete,
And His perfect love casteth out fear.
Chorus:
Oh, come to this valley of blessing so sweet,
Where Jesus will fullness bestow;
Oh, believe, and receive, and confess him,
That all his salvation may know.
2 There is peace in the valley of blessing so sweet,
And plenty the land doth impart;
There is rest for the weary-worn traveler's feet,
And joy for the sorrowing hear. [Chorus]
3 There is love in the valley of blessings so sweet,
Such as none but blood-washed may feel;
When heaven comes down redeemed spirits to greet,
And Christ sets his covenant seal. [Chorus]
4 There's a song in the valley of blessing so sweet
That angels would fain join the strain;
As, with rapturous praises, we bow at His feet,
Crying, "Worthy the Lamb that was slain." [Chorus] Tune Title: [I have entered the valley of blessing so sweet]
