Resting In His Arms
Resting In His Arms
Your mind may be clouded
Because of physical or mental pain.
Christ understands our weaknesses;
Simply rest and in His arms remain.
Cast your mind on your blessings
Rather than your afflictions.
Surrender your condition
To your Father in heaven.
Praise Him for His matchless love
And the sacrifice He made,
As you dwell upon your Lord,
Your own suffering will fade.
Song is a weapon
You can use every day
To combat discouragement—
The evil one’s gangway.
“Lord you are my light and my salvation—
Nothing shall I fear.
Lord you are my strength
Please always stay near.
I need Your comfort
To get me through this trial.
Soon it will be over—
In just a little while.
I lay my affliction
At Your loving feet.
I surrender it now—
Resist the enemy’s defeat.
You are my Comforter
My Healer and Friend
Thank you, dear Lord
That on You, I can depend.”
