Abiding, oh, so wondrous sweet lyrics

1. Abiding, oh, so wondrous sweet,

I’m resting at the Savior’s feet,

I trust in Him, I’m satisfied,

I’m resting in the Crucified.

Refrain

Abiding, abiding,

Oh! so wondrous sweet;

I’m resting, resting,

At the Savior’s feet.

2. He speaks, and by His word is giv’n

His peace, a rich foretaste of Heav’n;

Not as the world He peace doth give,

’Tis thro’ this hope my soul shall live. [Refrain]

3. I live; not I; ’tis He alone

By whom the mighty work is done;

Dead to myself, alive to Him,

I count all loss His rest to gain. [Refrain]

4. Now rest, my heart, the work is done;

I’m saved thro’ the eternal Son:

Let all my pow’rs my soul employ,

To tell the world my peace and joy. [Refrain]
