COME TO ME ALL YE THAT LABOUR

"Come to me all ye that labour" is a gentle, comforting choral piece that draws directly from the beloved words of Matthew 11. It is a song of profound invitation, echoing Christ’s call to those who are exhausted and carrying heavy loads. For a choir, singing this piece is an opportunity to minister peace to the congregation, reminding everyone that true rest is found in surrendering to God.

The melody carries a soothing, reassuring quality that perfectly matches the scriptural text. We often hear this piece sung during Communion or as a reflection hymn—quiet moments in the Mass when the faithful are invited to bring their personal struggles to the altar. The verses beautifully unfold the promise of Christ's easy yoke and light burden, making it a deeply moving experience for both the singers in the loft and the people in the pews.
