Rest-from hymnbook
Rest is not quitting
The busy career;
Rest is the fitting
Of self to one's sphere.
The busy career;
Rest is the fitting
Of self to one's sphere.
'Tis the brook's motion
Clear without strife.
Fleeting to ocean
After this life
Clear without strife.
Fleeting to ocean
After this life
'Tis loving + serving.
The highest + best;
'Tis onward, unswerving.
And this is true rest.
The highest + best;
'Tis onward, unswerving.
And this is true rest.
Minneapolis Oct 18th, 1868
