1028 The Life in Rest
Chorus
Living in rest means life without war,
life without filth, life without injustice,
no more Satan’s disruptions,
no more Satan’s corruption,
where God has no opposition,
where all is in proper position
to worship the Lord of creation,
where heaven and earth are peaceful.
This is the meaning of life in rest, oh, life in rest.
Verse 1
When God rests,
earth will have no more evil,
no more enemies invading;
man will enter a new realm,
not corrupted by Satan,
but instead a humanity
saved from corruption.
Verse 2
Man’s day of rest
will be God’s day for resting,
which He lost because mankind
could not enter into rest.
Entering rest does not mean
the end of all movement
or the end of all growing.
Bridge
It doesn’t mean God stops working.
It doesn’t mean humans stop living.
Rest will begin when Satan’s destroyed,
when the wicked who joined in its evildoing
have all been punished and wiped out,
and God has no more enemies.
Chorus
Living in rest means life without war,
life without filth, life without injustice,
no more Satan’s disruptions,
no more Satan’s corruption,
where God has no opposition,
where all is in proper position
to worship the Lord of creation,
where heaven and earth are peaceful.
This is the meaning of life in rest, oh, life in rest.
Verse 3
God entering rest
will mean God has finished
doing His work to save mankind.
When man enters rest,
all will live within God’s light,
fully blessed, free of Satan,
living normally on earth.
Verse 4
When God and mankind
begin rest together,
it means that humanity has been saved,
and Satan’s been shattered,
and God’s work is complete,
and humans will live
under Satan no more.
Chorus
Living in rest means life without war,
life without filth, life without injustice,
no more Satan’s disruptions,
no more Satan’s corruption,
where God has no opposition,
where all is in proper position
to worship the Lord of creation,
where heaven and earth are peaceful.
This is the meaning of life in rest, oh, life in rest.
Tag
God will no longer be busy,
humans will no longer be on the move;
God and humanity will enter rest together.
