Song: “Come Rest” by Lindsay McCaul
When is the last time we have come to Jesus to rest? Many times I find myself at His feet begging for forgiveness or help in whatever mess I managed to get myself into that day. Life is busy and exhausting sometimes what we need the most is time set aside when we can come rest in His love and goodness.
Busy, busy me, full of self-sufficiency
I have tried so fervently to earn Your love
But any joy that I once found is wearing off, is winding down
And I can hear You in the madness calling out
When You say come, rest -should I be working so hard
When You say love, rest -did You want hands or my heart
‘Cause I have done my best and still I miss the mark
But I remember You said its done
So I come
Come to the water’s edge
I rest in Your promises
That all You ever wanted was me here
And if there’s nothing left that I can do
To earn the love I need from You
Then all that’s left to want is to be near
So I come…when You say come…
