Come unto Me, My beloved,
give Me your yoke to bear
loosen from your shoulders
the burdens that on you wear.
Give unto Me, all your troubles,
nothing is too difficult for Me
take off those chains that bind
and keep you from being free.
Give unto Me, all your worries,
place them here at My feet
rid yourself of the constraints
that ties you up in defeat.
Give unto Me, your heavy load,
place it right here in My hand
work loose that which binds you
and experience My perfect plan.
Come unto Me, My beloved,
there is nothing that I can’t do
take off the yoke that keeps away
the love that I have for you!
~~~~~~~~
“Come unto me,
all ye that labour
and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you,
and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly
in heart: and ye shall
find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy,
and my burden is light.”

Thank you for this–how fitting, since one of the songs during our worship yesterday was “Break Every Chain”!
