581. Near to the Heart of God

1 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 you
near to the heart of God.

2 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]

3 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. [Refrain]
