Hark! The Gentle Voice

1 

Hark, the gentle voice of Jesus falleth

Tenderly upon your ear;

Sweet his cry of love and pity calleth;

Turn and listen, stay and hear.

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.

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 laden,

Lean upon your dear Lord’s breast;

Ye that labor and are heavy laden,

Come, and I will give you rest.

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ~Matthew 11:28

Matthew 11

28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
