Upon Thy word I rest.

So full of comfort blest,
So sweet, so pure —
The word that changeth not, that faileth never!
My King, I rest upon Thy word forever.

To learn it all alone,
And now that He would not let us lose

Let Thy presence in me shine
All my homeward way to cheer.

Oh, be Thou my All in All.
