I will rest in the Lord and be thankful
As I look upon all He has made
I'll retrace every hilltop and valley
Where I've seen His great kindness displayed
Oh the lengths He has gone to be near me
Even spilling His Son's holy blood
What a comfort to be know that my life now is whole
Through feast or famine or flood
I would have despaired had I not believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
The Lord is my light and salvation
My refugе and fortress for life
Though wickednеss rises against me
I take courage with Him by my side
If other loves should forsake me
The Lord will still call me His own
He has taught me His ways, He has led me in grace
He has given my heart a home
I would have despaired had I not believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
Oh I would have despaired had I not believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
You have sheltered my heart in my trouble
You have placed my feet high on a rock
You have lifted my head and I will sing again
Of my gracious, compassionate God
Yes you have lifted my head and I will sing again
Of my gracious, compassionate God
