Come close to me you heavy laden
For all your hurt I know
Draw near to me whose hopes have faded
I'll carry all your woe
Are you weary? Are you tired?
Are you done with the daily parade?
Are you wounded? Are you worn out?
Are you sick of the constant charade?
Are you guilty? Are ashamed?
Can you barely admit what you've done?
Would you own up? Would you confess?
Then into my arms would you run?
Come close to me you heavy laden
For all your hurt I know
Draw near to me whose hopes have faded
I'll carry all your woe
And give you rest for your soul
Are you angry? Are you spiteful?
Are you grasping for what should've been?
Are you troubled? Are you fearful
The old demons will haunt you again?
Come close to me you heavy laden
For all your hurt I know
Draw near to me whose hopes have faded
I'll carry all your woe
And give you rest for your soul
Make yourself, make yourself a child
Come to me, come to me and be reconciled
Are you weighed down? Are you buckling?
Have you worked and it all seemed in vain?
Are you confused? Are you wondering
Where do I go with all of this pain?
Come close to me you heavy laden
For all your hurt I know
Draw near to me whose hopes have faded
I'll carry all your woe
Now let go the world so overrated
Its endless pomp and show
Draw near to me whose hopes have faded
I'll carry all your woe
And give you rest for your soul
