Lyrics
Come unto Jesus, all you who are weary;
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here, bring your wounded hearts, broken and needy;
Come unto Jesus, mighty to heal.
Joy of the comfortless, Light for the straying,
Hope of the penitent, Peace in our strife;
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying:
"My yoke is easy, my burden is light."
Come unto Jesus, come unto Jesus.
Lay down your burdens, He is enough;
Come unto Jesus, rest in His love.
Come taste the Bread of Life; broken for sinners;
Drink from the cup of His promise made sure.
Feast at His table as sons and as daughters;
Grace overflowing is yours evermore.
Come unto Jesus, come unto Jesus.
Lay down your burdens, He is enough;
Come unto Jesus, rest in His love.
Come now and follow Him, this life forsaking;
All that was gain, count as nothing but loss.
Trade all this world for His kingdom unfading;
Come unto Jesus, take up your cross;
Come unto Jesus, take up your cross;
Life everlasting He offers to us!
Come unto Jesus, come unto Jesus.
Lay down your burdens, He is enough;
Come unto Jesus, rest in His love.
