Come to Me

From Matthew 11:28:  “Come to Me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”

Weary, come to Me

Taking time to rest

 

Hearts filled with darkness

Hearing voice of Christ

 

Forgiveness granted

Pardoning with peace

 

Today fills with joy

Tasting Savior’s love

 

 

 

Drifters, come to Me

Seeking light of faith

 

Nighttime becomes day

Hearing voice of Christ

 

Hearts filled with sadness

Looking for His Word

 

Morning shares its grace

Flowing from our Lord

 

 

 

Sinners, come to Me

Welcoming each one

 

Doubt now shrinks away

Hearing voice of Christ

 

True freedom now rings

Calling us back home

 

Unworthy, no more

Trusting Christ, the King
