Ye heavy-laden sinners, come;
I’ll give you rest from all your toils,
And raise you to My heav’nly home.
2. “They shall find rest that learn of Me;
I’m of a meek and lowly mind;
But passion rages like the sea,
And pride is restless as the wind.
3. Blest is the man whose shoulders take
My yoke, and bear it with delight;
My yoke is easy to his neck,
My grace shall make the burden light.
4. Jesus, we come at Thy command;
With faith, and hope, and humble zeal,
Resign our spirits to Thy hand,
To mold and guide us at Thy will. Used With Tune: WILLINGTON Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, Book I, 1707, number 127
