Christ be my rest
Christ be my life
Christ my peace
Christ on my left
Christ on my right
And my strivings cease
I find you here in silence
You’re always near, but it’s my sin
Of looking down that keeps us apart
But quiet now, I want your heart
My patient friend
Christ be my rest
Christ be my life
Christ my peace
Christ on my left
Christ on my right
And my strivings cease
So here you wait, for me to slow
To hear your voice, at last let go
Of my fearful hold on what I know
So quiet now, I surrender control
My patient friend
Christ be my rest
Christ be my life
Christ my peace
Christ on my left
Christ on my right
And my strivings cease
Christ be my rest
Christ be my life
Christ my peace
Christ on my left
Christ on my right
And my strivings cease
