Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
Hark, the gentle voice of Jesus falleth, Tenderly upon your ear; Sweet the cry of love and pity calleth, Turn and listen, stay and hear.
Verse 2
Take His yoke, for He is meek and lowly; Bear His burden to Him turn; He who calleth is the Master holy: He will teach if you will learn.
Verse 3
Then, His loving, tender voice obeying, Bear His yoke, His burden take; Find the yoke, His hand is on you laying, Light and easy for His sake.
Chorus
Ye that labor and are heavy ladened, Lean upon your dear Lord's breast; Ye that labor and are heavy ladened, Come and I will give you rest.
