Author: W. C. Dix Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home (2nd ed.) #279 (1928) Lyrics: 1 "Come unto me, ye weary,
And I will give you rest."
O blessed 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 wand'rers,
And I will give you light."
0 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."
0 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 patient love of Jesus,
Which drives away our doubt;
Which, though we be unworthy
Of love so great and free,
Invites us very sinners
To come, dear Lord, to Thee. Topics: Spiritual Songs The Call Languages: English Tune Title: [Come unto Me, ye weary]
