In Jesus I find rest and peace

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #418 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.8.7 Lyrics: 1 In Jesus I find rest and peace The world is full of sorrow; His wounds are my abiding-place; Let the unknown tomorrow Bring what it may, There I can stay, My faith finds all I need today, I will not trouble borrow. 2 Until I found that crystal spring, My way was dull and dreary; I looked for peace in many a thing; But still my soul grew weary. Unsatisfied, All things I tried, And yet my soul had not espied The fount of life so near me. 3 My soul was carnal, blind, and bound By sin, and never sought Thee, Lord Jesus, though I ever found All else no comfort brought me, No peace, no rest Within my breast; My troubled soul remained unblest, Of Thee I ne'er bethought me. 4 In pity, then, Thou cam'st to me, Thine arms to me extending; I heard Thy voice: Come unto me And rest in peace unending. Immanuel Loves thee full well, He saves thy soul from death and hell, In perils thee defending. 5 O Jesus, I must now confess The world hath but vexation And anguish, sorrow, dire distress, As is Thy declaration. In Thee is peace And sweet surcease; Thy bosom is my resting-place Where I find consolation. 6 To me the preaching of the cross Is wisdom everlasting; Thy death alone redeems my loss; On Thee my burden casting, I, in Thy name, A refuge claim From sin and death and from all shame-- Blest be Thy name, O Jesus! 7 O Jesus, may I constant be, Forever with Thee staying! O may I feel love's mastery, My every fear allaying! The dove at last Hath found sweet rest From all her weary, futile quest, Although she long went straying.

Ludvig Mathias Lindeman

1812 - 1887 Person Name: L. M. Lindeman, 1812-87 Composer of "I JESUS SØGER JEG MIN FRED" in Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary Ludvig M. Lindeman (b. 1812; d. 1887) was a Norwegian composer and organist. Born in Trondheim, he studied theology in Oslo where he remained the rest of his life. In 1839 he succeeded his brother as the organist and cantor of Oslo Cathedral, a position he held for 48 years up until his death. Lindeman was appointed Knight of the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav, and was invited to both help christen the new organ in Royal Albert Hall in London, as well as compose for the coronation of King Oscar II and Queen Sophie of Sweden. In 1883, he and his son started the Organist School in Oslo. Lindeman is perhaps best known for his arrangements of Norwegiam folk tales; over the course of his life he collected over 3000 folk melodies and tunes. Laura de Jong
