MY FAITH HAS FOUND A RESTING PLACE

LYRICS

Verse 1:
My faith has found a resting place
From guilt, my soul is free
I trust the ever-living One
His wounds for me shall plea

Verse 2:
Enough for me that Jesus saves
This ends my fear and doubt
A sinful soul, I come to Him
He'll never cast me out

Refrain:
I need no other argument, I need no other plea
It is enough that Jesus died, and that He died for me
And that He died for me

Verse 3:
In God, whose Word I trust and praise
It says I needn't be afraid
The Lord will give and take away
God's promises in Him are made

Verse 4:
And when my final day draws near
And darkness points me to the grave
My soul well-knows the end's not feared
Christ died for me, His life He gave
Into His presence, I am saved

  • Dane Ortlund said, “When my two-year-old Benjamin begins to wade into the gentle slope of the zero-entry swimming pool near our home, he instinctively grabs hold of my hand. He holds on tight as the water gradually gets deeper. But a two-year-old’s grip is not very strong. Before long it is not he holding on to me but me holding on to him.” (From Gentle and Lowly)
