Come to Me, All Who Are Weary

Matthew 11:28 is one of the most comforting Gospel passages; it is the one that inspired this song. For those who have felt tired, overwhelmed and burdened beyond capacity, Jesus' words are a consolation. Originally envisioned for solo guitar and singer, this octavo now includes an arrangement for SAB choir and other instruments that may be added, if desired. Given its consoling theme, this is a perfect song for wake and funeral services. It would also be very appropriate for anointing liturgies and also when praying in times of hardship and trial.
