This text by Lisa M. Clark is set to a memorable tune and two-part mixed setting by Jonathan Kohrs. The text highlights the story of salvation, while carrying themes of outreach, the new creation, and the end times. The choral texture builds from start to finish and blossoms with a descant in the final stanza.
In paradise, You shared Your bestWith us, Your children dear.Your bounty, presence, work, and rest:Secure from guilt or fear. But we brought shame upon the landAnd disobeyed Your clear command.Oh, we will never understandThe darkness we brought near.
In exile, driven from Your face, We hid and worked in vain.We lost the children's honored placeAnd earned Your just disdain.But Jesus came to take our blameAnd took away our horrid shameAnd gave to us His holy name,That we may life regain.
In restoration, we are freeAnd welcomed home anew.You smile on us abundantlyAnd bless us through and through.But as we wait for that great day,When all dishonor melts away,Let us, Your own beloved, say:'Our Lord, we honor You!'

This piece by Benjamin M. Culli paints a beautiful image of heaven. Arranged for SATB and piano, Culli treats the text with a lyrical tune and supportive piano accompaniment. The piece builds and modulates in the middle section, then finishes quietly in the original key. A moving selection for All Saints' Day.
A rest remains for all the weary;Arise, sad heart, and grieve no more;Though long the way, and dark and dreary,It opens to the golden shore.Before His throne the Lamb will lead you,On heav'nly pastures He will feed you,Cast off your burden, come with haste;Soon toil and strife will be unraveled,The weary way that you have traveled,Sweet is the rest that you will taste.
The Father's house has many a dwelling,And there for you a place will be.With perfect love His heart is wellingWho loved you from eternity.His precious blood the Lamb has givenThat you may share the joys of heaven,And now He calls out far and near:'You weary souls, cast off your sorrow;My light shines bright upon the morrow.Come, sweetest rest awaits you here!'
There rest and peace in endless measureWill be ours through eternity;No grief, no care, will mar our pleasure,And untold joy our lot will be.Oh, had we wings to hasten yonder—No more this sinful world to ponder—To join the glad, triumphant band!Arise, my soul, forget all sadness,For peace awaits you, joy and gladness—The perfect rest and promised land.
