Sit Down Beneath His Shadow Hymn Lyrics

1

Sit down beneath His shadow,

And rest with great delight ;

The faith that now beholds Him

Is pledge of future sight.

2

Our Master’s love remember,

Exceeding great and free ;

Lift up thy heart in gladness,

For He remembers thee.

3

Bring every weary burden,

Thy sin, thy fear, thy grief;

He calls the heavy laden,

And gives them kind relief.

4

A little while, though parted,

Remember, wait, and love ;

Until He comes in glory,

Until we meet above :

5

Till in the Father’s Kingdom

The heavenly feast is spread ;

And we behold His beauty,

Whose blood for us was shed !
