Come Weary Souls — HIS ESTATE

Come Weary Souls

‘Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.’

Matthew 11v28

Verse 1

Come, weary souls with sin distressed,

Come, and accept the promised rest;

The Saviours gracious call obey,

Cast your anxious fears away.

Verse 2

Burdened by guilt, weighed down with shame,

Come to the cross where Christ was slain

Divine compassion, mighty love

All your heavy load remove

Chorus

There is no more guilt, There is no more shame

Come like a child, believe and abide

Find rest in the Saviours name

Verse 3

Here mercy’s boundless ocean flows

To cleanse your guilt and heal your woes;

Pardon from sin, and endless peace

Rich the gift! How free the grace!

Verse 4

Lord, we accept with thankful heart,

The hope Your gracious word imparts;

We come with trembling, yet rejoice,

Hear Your gentle lowly voice.

Verse 5

Dear Saviour, let Your pow’rful love

Strengthen our faith, our fears remove,

Gloriously reign in every breath

Guide us to eternal rest
