There remaineth a rest, a rest
For the people of God
A promise, a finished work
And we must guard it with our hearts
Everything you will ever need
Was provided at Calvary
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
A rest, a finished work of the Lord
There remaineth a rest, a rest
For the people of God
A promise, a finished work
And we must guard it with our hearts
Everything you will ever need
Was provided at Calvary
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
A rest, a finished work of the Lord
Cursed is any man that hangeth on a tree
Jesus Christ took on this curse just for you and me
A curse is defined as poverty, sickness and death
When Jesus said it is finished He blessed us with his rest
There is a rest
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
A rest, a finished work of the Lord
Now that you know that it's finished
Come on by faith, let's go in it
Now that you know that it's finished
Come on by faith, let's go in it, go in it, go in it
Now that you know that it's finished
Come on by faith, let's go in it
Now that you know that it's finished
Come on by faith, let's go in it
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
There remaineth a rest, there is a rest
A rest...
A finished work of the Lord
A finished work of the Lord
A finished work of the Lord
