Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Jesus keep me near the cross
There's a precious fountain
Free to all a healing stream
Flows from Calvary's mountain
[Verse 2]
Near the cross I watch and wait
Hoping, hoping, hoping and trusting ever
Till I reach that golden strand
It's just beyond the river
[Verse 3]
In the cross
In the cross be my glory ever
Till my raptured soul shall find
One of these days I will find rest
Rest beyond the river
[Verse 4]
In the cross
In the cross be my glory ever
Till my raptured
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
[Verse 5]
He will give me wonderful rest
He'll give me sanctified rest
He'll give me glorious rest
He'll give me everlasting rest
[Verse 6]
Rest, He'll give me rest
Rest, He'll give me rest
He will give me rest
He'll give me wonderful rest
Sanctified rest
He'll give me, no more, no more, no more
He'll give me everlasting rest
Rest, rest
He will give me
I know he will
Rest, rest
Oh yes he will
Rest, rest
Rest, rest
Do you wanna rest?
I wanna rest
Do you wanna rest?
Rest, rest
Rest, He'll give me rest
He will give something to rest, yes he will
Rest, rest
Rest, rest
He will give me, he will give me, he will give me
Rest, rest
Yes he will
No more dying
No more sickness
No more medicine, no more pain
No more hospital
He will give you rest
Rest, He'll give you rest
You don't have to worry about aids
He will give you rest
Rest, he will give you rest
No more heartache and pain
Rest, rest
Rest beyond the river
