C. B. J. Root (525/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

C. B. J. Root ABIDING, oh, so wondrous sweet, I’m resting at the Saviour’s feet, I trust in Him, I’m satisfied, I’m resting in the Crucified. Abiding, abiding, Oh! so wondrous sweet; I’m resting, resting At the Saviour’s feet. 2 He speaks, and by His Word is given His peace, a rich foretaste of heaven; Not as the world He peace doth give, ’Tis through this hope my soul shall live. 3 I live; not I; ’Tis He alone By Whom the mighty work is done, Dead to myself, alive to Him, I count all loss His rest to gain. 4 Now rest, my heart, the work is done, I’m saved through the Eternal Son: Let all my powers my soul employ, To tell the world my peace and joy.
