Tune:[“Come to me, Ye who are hard oppressed]
Arranger:R. Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943)

156. Come to Me

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!”
