Return unto thy rest, O my soul.
Psalm 116:7.
Return, my soul, and sweetly rest,
On thy almighty Father’s breast;
The bounties of his grace adore,
And count his wondrous mercies o’er.
2 Thy mercy, Lord, preserved my breath,
And snatched my fainting soul from death;
Removed my sorrows, dried my tears,
And saved me from surrounding snares.
3 What shall I render to thee, Lord?
