15968. We Are Coming

1 "Come to Me," the Father sayeth,
"Ye whose hearts are bowed with grief;
Come and find a love abiding,
Find in Me a sweet relief."

Refrain:
We are coming, we are coming
To Thee, blessèd Lord!
We are coming, we are coming,
Trusting in Thy word.

2 "Come to Me," the still voice whispers,
"Come, however weak you be;
Come and find a strength increasing,
Love as boundless and as free." [Refrain]

3 "Come to Me," the Savior sayeth,
"I’ll your burden bearer be";
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
Offered freely now to thee. [Refrain]
