This Is Not My Place Of Resting

Text:
Horatius Bonar
Music:
Justin Smith

1. This is not my place of resting
Mine’s a city yet to come
Onward to it I am hasting
On to my eternal home

CHORUS:
In that land of light and glory
O’er it shines a nightless day
Every tear from sin’s sad story
All the curse has passed away

2. There the Lamb and Shepherd leads us
By the streams of life along
On the freshest pastures feeds us
Turns our sighing into song

3. Soon we pass this desert dreary
Soon we bid farewell to pain
Never more be sad nor weary
Never, never sin again
