Representative Text

1. Brother, art thou worn and weary,
Tempted, tried, and sore oppressed?
Listen to the word of Jesus,
Come unto Me, and rest!

Refrain
Come unto Me, and rest!
Come unto Me, and rest!
Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Come unto Me, and rest!

2. Oh, He knows the dark forebodings
Of the conscience troubled breast,
And to such His word is given,
Come unto Me, and rest! [Refrain]

3. To the Lord bring all your burden,
Put the promise to the test;
Hear Him say, your Burden Bearer,
Come unto Me, and rest! [Refrain]

4. If in sorrow thou art weeping,
Grieving for the loved ones missed,
Surely then to you He whispers,
Come unto Me, and rest! [Refrain]

5. Trust to Him for all thy future,
He will give thee what is best;
Why then fear when He is saying,
Come unto Me, and rest! [Refrain]
