Lyrics
Are you weary?
Or heavy laden?
Are those burdens just a piling up
And you think you've finally had enough
Now you wanna give up?
Are those burdens just a piling up
And you think you've finally seen enough
Now you’re gonna give up?
But don't give up
'Cause He's your rest
Don't look past
The Only Begotten Best [Jesus]
Rest for the weary traveller
As you walk through life's weary lands
Rest in He who is your strength, child
Your life is in His holy hands
Or heavy laden?
Are those burdens just a piling up
And you think you've finally had enough
Now you wanna give up?
Are those burdens just a piling up
And you think you've finally seen enough
Now you’re gonna give up?
But don't give up
'Cause He's your rest
Don't look past
The Only Begotten Best [Jesus]
Rest for the weary traveller
As you walk through life's weary lands
Rest in He who is your strength, child
Your life is in His holy hands
