Sin and doubt in my soul all my life did control,
And I felt so unworthy and blue,
Then I heard Jesus say while I knelt down to pray,
“There is rest in the Kingdom for you.”

Chorus:

There is rest in the Kingdom for me,
And my soul shall forever more be free,
When the battle has been ended,
When to heaven I’ve ascended,
There is rest in the Kingdom for me.

Lurking fears like a dart kept a pain in my heart,
Not a friend could I trust to be true,
Then the Lord said to me “Just believe and be free,
There is rest in the Kingdom for you.”

(Chorus)

All alone in despair, burdened down with my care,
I was lost, I was sad, I was blue,
Then I heard Jesus’ voice saying “Rise and rejoice.
There is rest in the Kingdom for you.”
