Sheet music

  1. 1There is a place of quiet rest,Near to the heart of God,A place where sin cannot molest,Near to the heart of God.O Jesus, blest Redeemer,Sent from the heart of God,Hold us, who wait before Thee,Near to the heart of God.
  2. 2There is a place of comfort sweet,Near to the heart of God,A place where we our Savior meet,Near to the heart of God.O Jesus, blest Redeemer,Sent from the heart of God,Hold us, who wait before Thee,Near to the heart of God.
  3. 3There is 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.O Jesus, blest Redeemer,Sent from the heart of God,Hold us, who wait before Thee,Near to the heart of God.
