Lyics"Come hither all ye weary souls,
"Ye heavy laden sinners come;
"I'll give you rest from all your toils,
"And raise you to my heav'nly home.
"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.
"Blest is the man whose shoulders take
"My yolk, and bear it with delight;
"My yolk is easy to his neck,
"My grace shall make the burden.
Jesus we come at thy command;
With faith, and hope, and humble zeal,
Resign our spirits to thy hand,
To mould and guide us at thy will.
