The lone wild bird in lofty flight
Is still with thee, nor leaves thy sight
And I am thine! I rest in thee
Great Spirit, come and rest in me
 
The ends of earth are in your hands
The sea's dark deep and far-off lands
And I am thine! I rest in thee
Great Spirit, come and rest in me
 
Each secret thought is known to you
The path I walk my whole life through
My days, my deeds, my hopes, my fears
My deepest joys, my silent tears
 
In secret depths, you knit my frame
Before my birth, you spoke my name
Within my soul, as close a breath
So near to me, in life, in death
 
Oh search me, God, my heart reveal
Renew my life, my spirit heal
For I am thine! I go to thee
Great Spirit, come and rest in me
Great Spirit, come and rest in me
 
The lone wild bird in lofty flight
Is still with thee nor leaves thy sight
And I am thine! I rest in thee
Great Spirit, come and rest in me
