In 1903, Reverend Cleland McAfee's 2 tiny nieces died within 24 hours of each other from diphtheria. His brother's family was then quarantined, with no one allowed in or out. In the midst of this great grief for their family and their community, he was asked to both preach and sing for the funeral service. From that, he wrote this hymn, taught it to his church choir, and subsequently blessed thousands over the past 100+ years. "There is a place of quiet rest, near to the heart of God."
