LyicsMY only Saviour, when I feel
O'erwhelmed in spirit, faint, oppressed,
'Tis sweet to tell thee, while I kneel
Low at thy feet, thou art my rest.
I'm weary of the strife within;
Strong powers against my soul contest;
O let me turn from self and sin
To thy dear cross, for there is rest.
O sweet will be the welcome day
When, from her toils and woes released,
My parting soul in death shall say,
"Now, Lord, I come to thee for rest."
