1 “Come to me, Ye who are hard oppressed; Lay your head gently upon my breast; Come to me, And I will give you rest; weary one, Hither come! God is your home!”

2 “Come to me!” Jehovah gently pleads; “Come to me, I can supply all needs; And my way, Unto green pasture leads; Free from sin! Enter in! God is your home!”
