\"Peaceful<\/a><\/p>\n

Come to Me, you weary;
\nCome to Me and find rest.
\nTake My Yoke upon you;
\nCome and know peace and gentleness.<\/p>\n

For why do you still labor,
\nWeighed down with pain and guilt and care,
\nOppressed and crushed down under
\nA load you cannot bear?<\/p>\n

Come seek the Lord, you afflicted;
\nSeek Him while He may be found.
\nToday is the day of salvation,
\nWhen grace and mercy have come down.<\/p>\n

Come to Me, you thirsty;
\nCome to Me and drink.
\nThough you have no money;
\nCome and buy and eat.<\/p>\n

For why do you spend money
\nFor that which is not bread
\nAnd squander all your wages
\nOn empty things instead?<\/p>\n

Come seek the Lord, you hungry;
\nIn Him is fullness of delight;
\nAbundance overflowing
\nTo immeasurable depth and height.<\/p>\n

Come to Me, you wayward;
\nLost in the darkness and the strife.
\nMy Word will guide your footsteps,
\nFor I am the way, the truth, the life.<\/p>\n

For why do you still wander
\nDown pathways that lead to sin and death,
\nForsaking the One who made you,
\nWho gives you each day your life and breath?<\/p>\n

Come seek the Lord, you wanderer,
\nSeeking to satisfy your soul.
\nIn Him is joy beyond all measure,
\nFor He alone can make you whole.<\/p>\n

And come seek the Lord, you hungry;
\nIn Him is fullness of delight;
\nAbundance overflowing
\nTo immeasurable depth and height.<\/p>\n

Yes, come seek the Lord, you afflicted;
\nSeek Him while He may be found.
\nToday is the day of salvation,
\nWhen grace and mercy have come down.<\/p>\n

Come to Me, you weary;
\nCome to Me and find rest.<\/p>\n
