Story Behind The Song
A tragedy that fell upon a friend
led me to this song
Sometimes all we can do is pray
and fall upon the Mercy of His Love
Song Description
It is a prayer and invitation
to Faith and renewed Faith in times
of biting deep sorrow
this song is just truly a heartfelt prayer: it is sorrow wrapped in gratitude and blessing
In grief ineffable, the foundation of Faith prevails.

Lyrics
Come and rest
Come and rest now
Lay your sorrows on His Blessed Altar
come and rest in the arms of Jesus
come and rest
Lay your sorrows on His Holy Altar
come and rest in the arms of Jesus
Come and rest in the heart of Jesus
come and rest in the Love that frees us
lay your sorrows up upon His Eternal Altar
come and rest
come and rest now In the arms of Jesus
O come and rest
lay your sorrows on His Altar
