1 I’ve yielded to God, and I’m saved ev’ry hour;
I’ve yielded to God, and I feel His sweet pow’r;
I’ve trusted His promises, not one has failed
Of all His good word, tho’ the tempter assailed.

Chorus:
Sweet, quiet yielded life,
Blessed rest from all storm and strife;
God’s own peace now fills my soul,
As on Him my way I roll.

2 I’ve entered the rest of the people of God,
The holy of holies made pure by His blood;
His law is within, I delight in His will,
I’ve learned how to wait upon God and be still. [Chorus]

3 I’ve reckoned myself to be dead unto sin,
And risen with Christ, and now He lives within;
‘The life more abundant’ He gives unto me,
This overflow life gives me full victory. [Chorus]
