<div class="lyrics">
<p>My soul in sad exile was out on life&#8217;s sea,<br>
So burdened with sin and distressed,<br>
Till I heard a sweet voice, saying,<br>
&#8220;Make Me your choice&#8221;;<br>
And I entered the &#8220;Haven of Rest&#8221;!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">I&#8217;ve anchored my soul in the &#8220;Haven of Rest,&#8221;<br>
I&#8217;ll sail the wide seas no more;<br>
The tempest may sweep over wild, stormy, deep,<br>
In Jesus I&#8217;m safe evermore.</p>
<p>I yielded myself to His tender embrace,<br>
In faith taking hold of the Word,<br>
My fetters fell off, and I anchored my soul;<br>
The &#8220;Haven of Rest&#8221; is my Lord.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>The song of my soul, since the Lord made me whole,<br>
Has been the old story so blest,<br>
Of Jesus, Who&#8217;ll save whosoever will have<br>
A home in the &#8220;Haven of Rest.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>How precious the thought that we all may recline,<br>
Like John, the belov&egrave;d so blest,<br>
On Jesus&#8217; strong arm, where no tempest can harm,<br>
Secure in the &#8220;Haven of Rest.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>O come to the Savior, He patiently waits<br>
To save by His power divine;<br>
Come, anchor your soul in the &#8220;Haven of Rest,&#8221;<br>
And say, &#8220;My Belov&egrave;d is mine.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
