Author: Rev. J. B. Atchinson Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #48 (1916) Refrain First Line: There is rest, sweet rest Lyrics: 1 In the shadow of His wings
There is rest, sweet rest;
There is rest from care and labor,
There is rest for friend and neighbor;
In the shadow of His wings
There is rest, sweet rest,
In the shadow of His wings
There is rest (sweet rest).

There is rest, (sweet rest,)
There is peace, (sweet peace,)
There is joy, (glad joy,)
In the shadow of His wings:
There is rest, (sweet rest,)
There is peace, (sweet peace,)
There is joy, (glad joy,)
In the shadow of His wings.

There is peace, sweet peace,
Peace that passeth understanding,
Peace, sweet peace that knows no ending;
In the shadow of His wings
There is peace, sweet peace,
In the shadow of His wings
There is peace (sweet peace). [Chorus]
3 In the shadow of His wings
There is joy, glad joy,
There is joy to tell the story,
Joy exceeding, full of glory;
In the shadow of His wings
There is joy, glad joy,
In the shadow of His wings
There is joy (glad joy). [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [In the shadow of His wings]
