Rest

 Rest, the Lord is near

 Refuse to fear, enjoy His love

 Trust, His mighty power

Fills every hour, of all your days

 

Chorus:

There is no need

For needless worry

 With such a Savior

You have no cause to ever

 Doubt, His perfect Word

 Still reassures, in any trial

 

 Rest, the Lord is there

Lift up your prayer

For He is strong

Trust, He’ll bring release

And perfect peace, will calm your mind

 

Chorus:

Call Him

 If you grow frightened

Call Him

With loving care

He’ll lift the burden and you’ll

 

Rest, the Lord is near

Refuse to fear, enjoy His love

Trust, His might power

Fills every hour, of all your days

 

Rest, the Lord is near

Refuse to fear, enjoy His love

"In this place ..."

“This is what the Lord says: In this place, which you say is a ruin, without man or beast—that is, in Judah’s cities and Jerusalem’s streets that are a desolation without man, without inhabitant, and without beast—there will be heard again a sound of joy and gladness, the voice of the groom and the bride, and the voice of those saying,

'Praise the Lord of Hosts,
for the Lord is good;
His faithful love endures forever'

as they bring thank offerings to the temple of the Lord. For I will restore the fortunes of the land as in former times, says the Lord.” (Jeremiah 33:10-11)*

“In this place, which you say is a ruin …there will be heard again a sound of joy and gladness..”

We can look at our lives after a storm and see only ruins and devastation but what God spoke of Judah’s cities and Jerusalem’s streets, is also true of us. What is will not always be. Restoration will come. There will be joy again. Be encouraged.
