Lyrics
This Is No Resting Place
words and music: Rob Lowe (C) 2004
We build our dreams of wood and stone
On little acres we call home
and settle down
Raise a family, make friends
Seldom considering our end
Enter the man, from Galilee
Calling men, saying "follow me"
But we turn our eyes from the obvious
until we're willing to face it
This is no resting pace
Chorus
This is no resting place
This is no holiday walk in the park
The days can get dangerous
The nights pretty dark
We've got a race to run
So until we hear well done
We've better pick up the pace
Cause its running late
and this is no resting place
Growing uneasy in that easy chair
Looking for signs of life that once were there
We turn around
And walk again facing the sun
There is nothing lost that can't be won
We rest in the assurance of amazing grace
But through the trials and testing, we learn, this is no resting place
Chorus
