132. Art Thou Weary?

1 Art thou weary, art thou languid,
Art thou sore distress’d?
“Come to Me,” saith One, “and coming,
Be at rest.”

Chorus:
Hear the sweet voice of Jesus calling thee,
Calling so gently, lovingly, tenderly:
Come, thou weary, heavy-laden,
O come to Me and rest.

2 Hath He marks to lead me to Him,
If He be my guide?
“In His feet and hands are wound-prints
And His side.” [Chorus]

3 If I find Him, if I follow,
What my future here?
“Many a sorrow, many a labor,
Many a tear.” [Chorus]

4 If I ask Him to receive me,
Will He say me nay?
“Not till earth and not till heaven
Pass away.” [Chorus]
