After Sermon (Book III, Hymn 98)
From Olney Hymns, Book III (1779)
Religion
We seek a rest beyond the skies,
In everlasting day;
Through floods and flames the passage lies,
But JESUS guards the way:
The swelling flood, and raging flame,
Hear and obey his word;
Then let us triumph in his name,
Our Savior is the Lord.
