Come unto Me, Ye Weary

Author: W. C. Dix Appears in 255 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Come unto me, ye weary, And I will give you rest." O blessed voice of Jesus, Which comes to hearts oppressed; It tells of benediction, Of pardon, grace, and peace, Of joy that hath no ending, Of love which cannot cease. 2 "Come unto me, ye wand'rers, And I will give you light." 0 loving voice of Jesus, Which comes to cheer the night; Our hearts were filled with sadness, And we had lost our way; But morning brings us gladness, And songs the break of day. 3 "Come unto me, ye fainting, And I will give you life." 0 cheering voice of Jesus, Which comes to aid our strife; The foe is stern and eager, The fight is fierce and long; But Thou hast made us mighty, And stronger than the strong. 4 "And whosoever cometh, I will not cast him out." O patient love of Jesus, Which drives away our doubt; Which, though we be unworthy Of love so great and free, Invites us very sinners To come, dear Lord, to Thee.

Light of the Gentile nations

Author: J. Franck Appears in 37 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Light of the Gentile nations, Thy people’s joy and love! Drawn by Thy Spirit hither, We gladly come to prove Thy presence in Thy temple, And wait with earnest mind, As Simeon once had waited His Savior God to find. 2 Yes, Lord, Thy servants meet Thee, E’en now, in every place Where Thy true word hath promised, That they should see Thy face. Thou yet wilt gently grant us, Who gather round Thee here, In faith’s strong arms to bear Thee, As once that aged seer. 3 Be Thou our joy, our brightness, That shines ’mid pain and loss, Our sun in times of terror, The glory round our cross; A glow in sinking spirits, A sunbeam in distress, Physician, friend in sickness, In death our happiness. 4 Let us, O Lord, be faithful With Simeon to the end, That so his dying song may From all our hearts ascend; "O Lord, let now Thy servant Depart in peace for aye, Since I have seen my Savior, Have here beheld His day." 5 My Savior, I behold Thee Now with the eye of faith; No foe of Thee can rob me, Though bitter words he saith. Within my heart abiding As Thou dost dwell in me, No pain, no death has terrors To part my soul from Thee!
