--------------------------------------------------------------------------
O heavy burdened, weary one,
Weighed down by sin and shame,
Come with your tired, downtrodden soul,
Helpless, or blind and lame;
No matter what oppresses,
Come, doubter, taste and see,
That God alone possesses,
Power to set you free.
For condemnation does not wait,
But His forgiveness sweet,
If only we confess the past,
And lay it at His feet.
He lifts the heavy millstone,
Fetters of many years,
And in the ocean casts them,
So sinking all our fears.
There is a rest for humble souls,
In everlasting arms,
A refuge from the tears and pain
And all the world’s alarms.
For God Himself has spoken:
If you would be made whole,
Christ offers to the broken
Balm for the sin-sick soul.
