COME UNTO ME.
Reading edition
"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. " Come unto Me, ye wanderers, And I will give you light." O loving voice of Jesus, Which comes to cheer the night; Our hearts were filled with sadness, And we had lost our way; But He has brought us gladness And songs at break of day. " Come unto Me, ye fainting, And I will give you life; O cheering voice of Jesus, Which comes to aid our strife; The foe is stern and eager, The fight is fierce and long; But He has made us mighty, And stronger than the strong. " And whosoever cometh, I will not cast him out." O welcome voice of Jesus, Which drives away our doubt; Which calls us very sinners, Unworthy though we be, Of love so free and boundless, To come, dear Lord, to Thee. —Unidentified.
