[Verse 1]
[C]Oh[G][C]
Lord, well you know my heart
Yes, and you know my desire
Oh, to sing the sweet
Zion [G]song [C]as [G]I go fro[D]m
[C]doo[D]r to [G]door.
Oh, but [C]when the work on this earth is done,
yes, and the victory,
Lord, I've won.
[F]When [C]this race of life is won,
[G]Lord, I won't [C]rest, [G]yes,
Lord, I won't [C]rest.
Now when I finish [G]this [C]walk of lif[G]e,
[C]yes, I'm gonna rest on my
Jesus' breast.
Oh,
Lord, I'm gonna rest from
[G]all [C]these trials.
Yes, I'm gonna [D]rest [C]from
[G]all these trials.
Oh, with these [C]heartaches,
yes, in my breast.
Yes, these worries and the prayer[G]s.
Af[C]ter I have done my best, [G]oh
Lord I won't [C]rest, [G]yes
Lord I won't [C]rest,
now when I finish this walk of life
[G]Oh, I'm gonna res[C]t on my
Jesus' breast
[G]Oh, [C]I'm gonna rest
[G]from all [C]these trials
Yes, I'm gonna [G]rest[D]
[G]from [C]all the[G]se trials
Oh, with [C]this heartache, yes, in my [G]breast
[C]Yes[G], it's the[C] worry and the prayer
After I [G]have [C]done [G]my [C]best
[G]Lord, I'm gonna [C]rest
[G]Yes,
Lord, I'm gon[C]na rest
[G][C]
