1
Yes, they've passed sweet-ly, still-ing, fol-low, And peace is their 'tis rest;
When the morn shall dawn, they'll rise a-gain, And be for-ev-er blessed.
In the vale of qui-et sleep-ing, No sor-row can mo-lest.
2
Je-sus calls His faithful ones to sleep, They need not watch or weep;
In the morn-ing of the res-ur-rec-tion, They'll wake from slum-ber deep.
In the vale of qui-et sleep-ing, No sor-row can mo-lest.
3
Rest, sweet souls! Let no pil-grim-age done; no bless-ed;
Bask in the new heav-en-ly Je-ru-sa-lem, Rest from toil and strife and care.
In the vale of qui-et sleep-ing, No sor-row can mo-lest.
C
Chorus
Gone to rest, gone to rest, Gone to rest in the val-ley;
Gone to rest, gone to rest, They are rest-ing in the val-ley.
