There
is
an
hour
of
peaceful
rest,
To
mourning
wand'rers
given;
There
is
a
tear
for
souls
distressed,
A
balm
for
every
wounded
breast,
'Tis
found
alone
in
heavn.

Sin-ner,
go,
will
you
go,
To
the
highlands
of
heav-en;
Where
the
storms
never
blow,
And
the
long
summer's
giv

en?
Where
the
bright
blooming
flow'rs
Are
their
o

dors

ting;
And
the
leaves
of
the
bow'rs
On
the
breez-es
are
flit-ting.

Where
the
saints
robed
in
white,
Cleansed
in
life's
flowing
fountain,
Shining,
beauteous,
and
bright,
Shall
inhabit
the
mountain.
Where
no
sin,
nor
dismay,
Neither
trouble,
nor
sorrow,
Will
be
felt
for
to-day,
Nor
be
feared
for
the
morrow.

He's
prepared
thee
a
home:
Sinner,
canst
thou
betieve
it?
And
invites
thee
to
come:
Sinner,
wilt
thou
receive?
Oh,
come,
sinner,
come,
For
the
tide
is
receding,
And
the
Saviour
will
soon,
And
forever
cease
pleading.
