Come hither, all ye weary souls by Benjamin Cuzens — Lyrics
Come hither all ye weary souls,
Ye heavy laden sinners come,
I'll give you rest from all your toils,
And raise you to my heav'nly home.
They shall find rest that learn of me:
I'm of a meek and lowly mind;
But passion rages like the sea,
And pride is restless as the wind.

About Come hither, all ye weary souls
Benjamin Cuzens' hymn Come hither, all ye weary souls offers a comforting invitation to those burdened by life's struggles. Sung in English by a SATB choir, it draws directly from biblical imagery, promising rest and solace to the faithful. The text assures listeners that the "yoke" of commitment is "easy" and "light" through divine grace. This setting would be particularly fitting for services focused on themes of repentance, spiritual renewal, or the embrace of faith, providing a moment of profound reflection and spiritual reassurance for the congregation.
