LYRICS:
Stanza 1
Hear the blessed Savior calling the oppressed,
"O ye heavy laden, come to me and rest;
Come, no longer tarry, I your load will bear,
Bring me ev'ry burden, bring me ev'ry care."
Stanza 2
Are you disappointed, wand'ring here and there,
Dragging chains of doubt and loaded down with care?
Do unholy feelings struggle in your breast?
Bring your case to Jesus, He will give you rest.
Stanza 3
Stumbling on the mountains dark with sin and shame,
Stumbling tow'rd the pit of hell's consuming flame,
By the pow'rs of sin deluded and oppressed,
Hear the tender Shepherd,-- "Come to Me and rest."
Stanza 4
Have you by temptation often conquer'd been,
Has a sense of weakness brought distress within?
Christ will sanctify you, if you'll claim His best,
In the Holy Spirit, He will give you rest.
Chorus
Come unto me, I will give your rest;
Take my yoke upon you, Hear me and be blest;
I am meek and lowly, Come and trust my might;
Come, my yoke is easy, And my burden's light;
SCRIPTURE & THEMES:
This hymn extends a heartfelt invitation from the Savior to those burdened and weary, promising rest and solace to all who heed His call.
Scriptural themes reflected in this hymn include:
(1) Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV): "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
- This passage forms the basis of the hymn, capturing the essence of Christ's invitation to find rest in Him.
(2) Psalm 55:22 (KJV): "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved."
- The hymn's call to bring every burden to Jesus reflects the biblical principle of casting our cares upon the Lord, trusting in His sustaining grace.
(3) Isaiah 1:18 (KJV): "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."
- The hymn's invitation to come to Jesus and find rest echoes the prophet Isaiah's call to reason with the Lord and receive cleansing and forgiveness.
'Come Unto Me' serves as a poignant reminder of Christ's compassion and invitation to find rest and solace in Him amidst life's trials and struggles."
