[Verse 1]
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.

[Verse 2]
There 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.

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
There 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.

[Refrain]
