<< Now I know the song you're citing says "arise FROM your rest [i.e., your
 'resting place']"  rather than "into."        But I think the reason is
 probably as follows.   Once God is enthroned, it makes sense to call him to
 arise FROM his throne on his mountain --that is from his 'rest'/'resting
 place' --to display his power, to save and judge.    (Note that there
 several calls in the Psalms for God to "arise" or declarations that he will
 arise  --Ps 3:7, 7:6, 10:12. . .  102:13.) >>

Funny,
I always thought it said "so arise TO Your rest"...  That's the way we've 
always sung it anyway.  Someone care to check a copy of the published sheet 
music?
