"Ye heavy laden sinners come,
"I'll give you rest from all your toils,
"And raise you to my heav'nly home.

"I'm of a meek and lowly mind;
"But passion rages like the sea,
"And pride is wrestless as the wind.

"My yoke, and bear it with delight;
"My yoke is easy to his neck,
"My grace shall make the burden light."

With faith and hope, and humble zeal,
Resign our spirits to thy hand,
To moold and guide us at thy will. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Languages: English
