All of our labors
like chaff around the wheat
Better for our futures
to rest at the master’s feet
Stop and linger, rest and sleep
away from life’s daily toil
Prepare now for days in heaven
beyond this mortal coil
Rest for the faithful
oh let it be so
A life with our savior
on this journey we will go.
