Text Based On Matthew Chapter 11 (KJV)
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and
lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

COME UNTO ME, YE WEARY
1.
“Come unto Me, ye weary, and I will give you rest.”
O blessèd voice of Jesus, which comes to hearts oppressed!
It tells of benediction, of pardon, grace, and peace,
Of joy that hath no ending, Of love which cannot cease.
2.
“Come unto Me, ye wanderers, and I will give you light.”
O loving voice of Jesus, which comes to cheer the night!
Our hearts were filled with sadness, And we had lost our way;
But morning brings us gladness, And songs the break of day.
3.
“Come unto Me, ye fainting, and I will give you life.”
O cheering voice of Jesus, Which comes to aid our strife!
The foe is stern and eager, The fight is fierce and long;
But Thou hast made us mighty, And stronger than the strong.
4.
“And whosoever cometh, I will not cast him out.”
O welcome voice of Jesus, Which drives away our doubt;
Which calls us very sinners, Unworthy though we be-
Of love so free and boundless, To come, dear Lord, to Thee.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
