#291 The Haven Of Rest

1. My soul in sad ex-ile was out on life's sea So bur-dened with sin and and dis-terest, Till I heard a sweet voice saying "Make me Your Choice" And I en-tered the Ha-ven of rest. Chorus: I've an-chored my soul in the Ha-ven of Rest, I'll sail the wild seas no more; the tem-pest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep; but in Jesus I am safe evermore 2. I yield-ed my-self to His ten-der em-brace, and, faith tak-ing hold of the Wor, My fet-ters fell off, and I an-chored mu soul; The Ha-ven of Rest is my Lord. Chorus: I've an-chored my soul in the Ha-ven of Rest, I'll sail the wild seas no more; the tem-pest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep; but in Jesus I am safe evermore 3. The song of my soul, since the Lord made me whole, Has been the old sto-ry so blest, Of Je-sus, who'll save who so-ev-er will have A Home in the Ha-ven of Rest. 4. Oh, come to the Saviour, He pa-tient-ly waits, To save by His pow-er di-vine, Come, anchor your soul in the Ha-ven of Rest, And say "My Be-loved is mine," Chorus: I've an-chored my soul in the Ha-ven of Rest, I'll sail the wild seas no more; the tem-pest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep; but in Jesus I am safe evermore
