Haven of Rest
      (Henry L. Gilmour)

My soul in exile was out on life’s sea
So burdened with sin & distress
‘Til I heard a sweet voice
Saying, “Make me your choice”
And I entered the haven of rest

Chorus:
I’ve anchored my soul
In the Haven of Rest
I’ll sail the wild seas no more
The tempest may sweep
O’er the wild stormy deep
In Jesus I’m safe evermore

I yielded myself to His tender embrace
And faith taking hold of the Word
My fetters fell off & I anchored my soul
The Haven of Rest is my Lord

The song of my soul
Since the Lord made me whole
Has been the old story so blessed
Of Jesus who will save whosoever will have
A home in the Haven of Rest

Oh, come to the Savior,
      He patiently waits
To save by His power divine
Come anchor your soul
      In the Haven of Rest
And say, “My Beloved is mine!”
