Near To The Heart Of God

There is a place of quiet rest near to the heart of God.

There is a place of quiet rest,

Near to the heart of God.

A place where sin cannot molest,

Near to the heart of God.

Refrain

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,

Sent from the heart of God,

Hold us who wait before Thee

Near to the heart of God.

There is a place of comfort sweet,

Near to the heart of God.

A place where we our Savior meet,

Near to the heart of God.

Refrain

There is a place of full release,

Near to the heart of God.

A place where all is joy and peace,

Near to the heart of God

And while we were yet sinners (black sheep) Christ died for us.
