Rest Now
No more sorrow w ill be mine No more burdens w ill I bear No more heartaches w ill I endure Weighted down with endless care,
Rest Now.
While here on earth I did my best, A frien d to a ll I tried to be, This day, no regrets I have, While you here look at me, Rest Now.
No more w ill I fret and worry, About what a day might bring
I go now to a city, Where G o d 's H oly A ngels sing,
Rest Now.
