written to encourage someone whose son died
Lyrics
AS YOU REST Deb Rempel, Yvonne Bach 2006 Arrangement Yvonne Bach and Art Elswick 2006 Verse One God knows the words You cannot say. He knows the grief you bare With each passing day. God hears your soul Cry for your son He weeps when you Ask why he's gone. Chorus As you rest In God's embrace, The tears that drop From His face Fall on you Like heaven's rain, They flood your soul, And heal your pain. Your deepest grief Finds deeper grace As you rest, as you rest, As you rest In God's embrace. Verse Two You still hear his voice And touch things he loved, Surrounded by mementos of How precious you son was. He was a fighter, your buddy and friend. Now that he's with Jesus You feel that nothing Will be the same again... Chorus Bridge and Tag Heavens rain falls on you flooding your soul healing your pain as you rest We repeat this two time while I sing above all of that with Sorrow falls Like heavens rain As you rest Healing your pain As you rest So cry those tears. They mix with His Cause God remembers, He remembers Feeling like this As you rest in Gods embrace In Gods embrace. As you rest.
