Near to the Heart of God

Near to the Heart of God
words by Cleland McAfee

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.

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.


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.
