My Soul, in sad exile


My soul in sad exile was out on life�s sea,
So burdened with sin and distressed,
Till I heard a sweet voice, saying,
�Make Me your choice�;
And I entered the �Haven of Rest�!
Refrain

I�ve anchored my soul in the �Haven of Rest,�
I�ll sail the wide seas no more;
The tempest may sweep over wild, stormy, deep,
In Jesus I�m safe evermore.

I yielded myself to His tender embrace,
In faith taking hold of the Word,
My fetters fell off, and I anchored my soul;
The �Haven of Rest� is my Lord.

Refrain

The song of my soul, since the Lord made me whole,
Has been the old story so blest,
Of Jesus, Who�ll save whosoever will have
A home in the �Haven of Rest.�

Refrain

How precious the thought that we all may recline,
Like John, the belov�d so blest,
On Jesus� strong arm, where no tempest can harm,
Secure in the �Haven of Rest.�

Refrain

O come to the Savior, He patiently waits
To save by His power divine;
Come, anchor your soul in the �Haven of Rest,�
And say, �My Belov�d is mine.�

Refrain
