In Returning and Rest
Words by Biblical text, Isaiah 30:15 (King James Version)Music by Sing the KJV
For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel;
In returning and rest shall ye be saved;
in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength:
and ye would not.
And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you,
and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you:
for the LORD is a God of judgment:
blessed are all they that wait for him.
Story Behind the Song
This is a modern Scripture song setting words from Isaiah 30:15 in the King James Version: “In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength.” The piece is associated with Sing the KJV, a project producing musical settings of biblical texts in the King James Version. It is not a standard historical hymn with a widely established tune name or hymnal pedigree.
