167. Art Thou Weary?

1 Art thou weary, art thou troubled,
Art thou sore distressed?
"Come to Me," saith One, "and coming,
Be at rest."

2 Hath He marks to lead me to Him,
If He be my Guide?
In His feet and hands are wound prints,
And His side.

3 Hath He diadem, as Monarch,
That His brow adorns?
Yea, a crown, in very surety,
But of thorns.

4 If I still hold closely to Him,
What hath He at last?
Sorrow vanquished, labor ended,
Jordan passed.

5 Finding, following, keeping, struggling,
Is He sure to bless?
Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs,
Answer Yes.

Amen.
