A Resting Place

My sweet husband has been encouraging me to blog again. I seem to be out of things to write about (even though there is much going on in our lives at present). So, since I am unable to come up with words of my own, I am going to borrow the words of a beautiful hymn written by Eliza E. Hewitt. They have been a comfort to me these past few days.

My faith has found a resting place,

Not in device or creed:

I trust the Ever-living One,

His wounds for me shall plead.

(Refrain)

I need no other argument,

I need no other plea;

It is enough that Jesus died,

And that He died for me.

Enough for me that Jesus saves,

This ends my fear and doubt;

A sinful soul I come to Him,

He'll never cast me out.

My heart is leaning on the Word,

The written Word of God:

Salvation by my Savior's name,

Salvation through His blood.

-Eliza E. Hewitt
