105
COME.
When life's cares are pressing heavy,
And the days are dark for thee;
Listen, thou mayst hear a whisper—
“Heavy ladened, come to me.”
And the days are dark for thee;
Listen, thou mayst hear a whisper—
“Heavy ladened, come to me.”
In this world of care and trial,
Thou wilt oft discouraged be,
Work on, weary one, He whispers,—
“Heavy ladened, come to me!”
Thou wilt oft discouraged be,
Work on, weary one, He whispers,—
“Heavy ladened, come to me!”
“Come to thee?” thy tired heart asketh,
What shall coming profit me?”
Jesus Christ thy Lord repliest:
“Heavy ladened rest in me!”
What shall coming profit me?”
Jesus Christ thy Lord repliest:
“Heavy ladened rest in me!”
Keep up courage, e'er prove faithful,
He has shed His blood for thee;
And He'll say, when life is finished,—
“Come ye blessed, rest with me.”
He has shed His blood for thee;
And He'll say, when life is finished,—
“Come ye blessed, rest with me.”
