Christ's Invitation to Sinners, or Humility and Pride
Isaac Watts • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 57
Verse 1
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 heavenly home.
Verse 2
They shall find rest who learn of me; I'm of a meek and lowly mind; But passion rages like the sea, And pride is restless as the wind.
Verse 3
Blest is the man whose shoulders take My yoke, and bear it with delight; My yoke is easy to his neck, My grace shall make the burden light.
Verse 4
Jesus, we come at thy command, With faith, and hope, and humble zeal, Resign our spirits to thy hand, To mold and guide us at thy will.
