Come Unto Me
If you are tired from carrying heavy burdens, come to me and I will give you rest. (Mat 11:28, CEV)
I came to the Savior with urgent need
In trouble I have seen Him indeed
And my Savior still speaks surely to me
If ye so labor, “Come unto Me.”
Do hurts of this world, cares of your life
Crush the heart’s hope; pierce like a knife?
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
Families break up, by death do we part
Temptations assault and sink the heart
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
The hurting soul says “Can’t come at all!”
as they toss and turn against God’s call
The savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
Have you shut the door to words so wise?
“Come unto Me without your disguise.”
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
Are you bad or lonely; do you sadly frown?
Are you sick or fearful, or lonely or down?
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
Are you mad or glad, or rich or poor?
You can’t resist some evil lure?
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
The story of your life may be Galilee
Raging turmoil, and no hope you see
The Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
Come to Jesus; and rest you shall find
Whenever a burden shall tie or bind
Your Savior still speaks surely to thee
If ye so labor; “Come unto Me.”
