Listen to this wonderful live performance by Jordan Kauflin and Matt Merker of the song 'Come to Jesus (Rest in Him).'
“Are you weary, heavy laden? Come and lay your burdens down
Jesus calls you, Jesus draws you, rest in Him, He is gentle, He is lowly
He delights to bring us peace, tender shepherd, mighty Savior, rest in Him
How sure, His compassion for us, oh how deep is his love,
So come, come to Jesus, and rest in Him”
The lovely song starts off with beautiful cello music. Then vocals and guitar come in. What a beautiful performance! And the peaceful music is so full of warmth and encouragement.
“What comforting and reassuring words,” one person writes on YouTube after watching the video.
“Very encouraging song. We are weary from the hustle and bustle of life. Thank you for the reminder that we can find rest in Jesus,” comments another person online.
