ANTHEM: Come Find His Rest by Erik Dewar/arr. by Dan Forrest
I heard, come weary one, leave thy labors; come, lift thy head, see thy Savior and Friend. His arms are opened wide; O soul, be satisfied. Come find His rest. Take His yoke upon thee, for He is gentle and lowly in heart. So learn from Christ the Lord, thy Portion and reward. Come find His rest. I heard the voice of Jesus say, come weary one, leave thy labors; come, lift Thy head, see thy Savior and Friend. His arms are opened wide O soul, be satisfied. Come find His rest. Take His yoke upon thee, for He is gentle and lowly in heart. So learn from Christ the Lord, thy Portion and Reward, come find His rest. Come weary one, the voice of Jesus say, lift thy head, I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Come unto me and rest; lay down, O weary one, lay down your head upon my breast.” I came to Jesus as I was so weary, worn, and sad; I found in him a resting place, and He has made me glad. Take His yoke upon thee, for He is gentle and lowly in heart. So learn from Christ the Lord, thy Portion and Reward. Come find His rest.
