Eternally repose your weary
soul in the bosom of Jesus!
(from "Go and Tell Jesus" by Octavius Winslow)
Forward, believer in Christ, to the toils, duties,
and trials of another stage of life's journey!
Jesus is enough for them all.
Jesus will be with you in them all.
Jesus will triumphantly conduct you through them all.
Beloved one, live in the constant expectation
of soon seeing Jesus face to face; conversing
with He whom here below, cheered, comforted,
and sweetened many a weary step of your
Christian pilgrimage.
That moment is speeding on.
In a little while and all that now wounds and
ruffles, tempts and pollutes, will have disappeared
like the foam upon the billow, and you shall eternally
repose your weary soul in the bosom of Jesus!
