Return, My Soul, And Seek Thy Rest

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Return, my soul, and seek thy rest Upon thy heav’nly Father’s breast: Indulge me, Lord, in that repose, The soul which loves Thee only knows. 2 Lodged in Thine arms I fear no more The tempest’s howl, the billows’ roar; Those storms must shake th’Almighty’s seat, Which violate the saints’ retreat. 3 Thy bounties, Lord, to me surmount The power of language to recount; From morning dawn, the setting sun Sees but my work of praise begun. 4 The mercies, all my moments bring, Ask an eternity to sing; What thanks those mercies can suffice Which thro’ eternity shall rise? 5 Rich in ten thousand gifts possessed, In future hopes more richly blessed, I’ll sit and sing, till death shall raise A note of more proportioned praise.

A virgin shall conceive, and bear A son, Immanuel, God with man! 2 Hark! hear ye not the angel bring His answering message from the sky? Hail, virgin blest, from whom shall spring A son, the Son of God most high! 3 O Thou, who didst not scorn below, The Son of Man, with us to dwell, And us Thy Father’s glory show, The Son of God, Immanuel. 4 Thou, for our sake incarnate made, Thy Godhead, lo! with faith we own, Or in a servant’s form arrayed, Or partner of Thy Father’s throne. 5 O Jesus, glory be to Thee, Returned to Thy celestial rest, Throned with Thy Father’s majesty, In union with the Spirit blest.

And Thou hast there a place for me! Though yet an exile here I roam, That distant home by faith I see. 2 I see its domes resplendent glow, Where beams of God’s own glory fall; And trees of life immortal grow, Whose fruits o’erhang the sapphire wall. 3 I know that Thou, who on the tree Didst deign our mortal guilt to bear, Will bring Thine own to dwell with Thee, And waitest to receive me there. 4 Thy love will there array my soul In Thine own robe of spotless hue; And I shall gaze while ages roll, On Thee, with raptures ever new. 5 O welcome day! when Thou my feet Shalt bring the shining threshold o’er; A Father’s warm embrace to meet, And dwell at home for evermore.
