I Will Rest In His Name

I Will Rest In His Name

Have you ever been broken

Trails of tears on your cheek

Has your faith been outspoken

By doubt and disbelief

Have you fought through the demons

Through the bad and the worse

When the walls are caving in

And you're sure there's a curse

Intruding through thoughts

They attack who you are

Hissing and gnawing

While repeating past scars

To me this has happened

A dark night in my room

I fought and I fought

But the thoughts continued

My jaw and fists clinched

I had enough of all this

I called on a name

That one day I had missed

The One who had come

And conquered the dark

Bringing light to the deep

Raising up for my heart

From Judah to Nazareth

He lived in my place 

He never once failed 

Though they spat in His face 

The suffering He felt

No one can compare

The full wrath of God

Is what He had to bear

Justice and Mercy

Such uncommon mates

Met there upon Jesus'

Irresistible grace

In His name I now rest

Through the storm and the still

It's not always easy

But by His wounds I am healed
