God's Sabbath Rest
 
1. What is the cure that brings relief to human restlessness?
What is the way to true success? It is God's Sabbath Rest.
The Sabbath speaks of problems solved, by God's unerring plans;
The Rest speaks of our burdens born, when laid into His hands. 
 
2. All birds flee from the storm, but one, who guards her little nest;
Calm, fearless, and unmoved, she sits, she knows God's Sabbath Rest.
She knows what we have yet to learn: the safest place to be,
Is where our Saviour places us, tho' storms lash furiously. 
 
3. This truth is seen in Jesus Christ, and perfectly express'd;
Surrendered to his Father's will, He lived God's Sabbath Rest.
So free of self and human pride, He would not plan His way,
But took the plans His Father made, unfolded, day by day. 
 
4. A promised rest remains, God waits for us to enter in;
To put away our planfilled lives, and come and learn of Him.
Then swiftly will God's work be done! We'll pass the final test!
What is the sign, the flag, the way? It is God's Sabbath Rest!
