Come to Me

Come to Me

Come to me when your burdens are heavy

Come to me in your tears

Come to me, when your heart fills with sorrow

And I will give you Rest

The Rest  that calms in the dark of night

That only I can give

The Rest that wipes all your tears away

And brings to you my gift of Peace

Take my yoke, and learn of me

Place my laws in your heart

Take my yoke for light is the burden

And I will give you Life

The Life that wakes when the trumpet sounds

That only I can give

The Life that lasts for eternity

And you will reign with me

“Come To Me” is an original poem inspired by the scripture Matthew 11:28. In this passage, we are told to go to Jesus in our times of trouble and hardship,seeking the peace and strength that only God can provide.

Amidst the sadness in the world, this poem reflects the comfort and hope found in God’s Word, reminding us of the rest and healing He offers.

Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. – Matthew 11:28

  • THANKS Cynthia!! I have just EXPERIENCED this and it was an AMAZING and AWESOME miracle!! I grew up having by necessity to rely on MYSELF so this has NOT come easy for me. I am here to say that we absolutely CAN trust God in times of need!! His Word is SURE!! Therefore, we should come with boldness to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)
