Near to the Heart of God
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. 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] 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]
