Glimpses of Jesus' Rest

Some friends introduced us to the album/compilation Rain for Roots on a trip recently. I was hooked after the first soothing sounding yet hard-hitting song, "Come to Me" based on Jesus' powerful, yet difficult to believe words in Matthew 11:28-30. This is an album aimed at kids, but I found myself really loving the beautiful simplicity of the lyrics and melody.

Come to Me
by Sandra McCracken

Come to me
Walk with me
Learn the rhythms of my grace
Come to me
I have all you need
Learn to rest even while you are awake

Are you tired?

Are worried?
Worn out from the day?
Have you been in a hurry?
I will slow the pace.

Come to me

Walk with me
Learn the rhythms of my grace
Come to me
I have all you need
Learn to rest even while you are awake
