There is a place of quiet rest, 
near to the heart of God; 
a place where sin cannot molest, 
near to the heart of God. 

Refrain:

O Jesus, blest Redeemer, 
sent from the heart of God, 
hold us who wait before thee 
near to the heart of God. 

There is a place of comfort sweet, 
near to the heart of God; 
a place where we our Saviour meet, 
near to the heart of God. 
(Refrain) 

There is place a place of full release, 
near to the heart of God; 
a place where all is joy and peace, 
near to the heart of God. 
(Refrain)
