“My faith has found a resting place, not in device or creed;
I trust the ever-living One, His wounds for me shall plead.
I need no other argument, I need no other plea;
it is enough that Jesus died, and that He died for me.”
My Faith Has Found a Resting Place is a hymn first published in 1891. Eliza Edmunds Hewitt wrote the lyrics, under her pen name, Lidie H. Edmunds. The beautiful tune is the Norwegian folk melody Landås, attributed to Andre Ernest Modeste Gretry and arranged for this hymn by William James Kirkpatrick.
