Come unto me, ye that are weary, Ye heavy laden, come; Thorny your road, your pathway dreary, Haste, weary pilgrims, home.

Hear the sweet voice tenderly calling, Come unto me and rest; Loving and true the accents are falling, He that will come is blest.

Come unto me, all ye that labor, Take upon you my yoke; You will find me a friend and neighbor, Ready to bear your stroke.

Hear the sweet voice tenderly calling, Come unto me and rest; Loving and true the accents are falling, He that will come is blest.

Come unto me, alas! poor sinner, Why dost thou longer roam? The fatling’s killed, and the full dinner Now bids thee haste to come.

Chorus

Hear the sweet voice tenderly calling, Come unto me and rest; Loving and true the accents are falling, He that will come is blest.

Oh, come, let me carry thy burden, Thy load of grief remove; Oh, hasten thee, and cross over Jordan, Canaan, fair land we love.

Hear the sweet voice tenderly calling, Come unto me and rest; Loving and true the accents are falling, He that will come is blest.
