Hush-a-by [Come unto Me and Rest] lyrics

I heard the voice of Jesus say

“Come unto Me and rest

Lay down, oh weary one, lay down

Thy head upon My breast”

I came to Jesus as I was

So weary, worn and sad

I found in Him a resting place

And He has made me glad

Hush-a-by baby

Oh, ever so dear

Hush-a-by baby

I’ll carry you near

Hush-a-by baby

God sees all our tears

And keeps our bottles of tears

Hush-a-by baby

These cries in the night

Never are lost

In the mist of time

Hush-a-by baby

All things will be right

He’ll wipe away all our tears

Hush-a-by baby

As winter winds blow

Hush-a-by baby

Lean in from the cold

Hush-a-by baby

There’s warmth for your soul

A blanket for your soul

Hush-a-by baby

These whispers will soothe

Your heart like a deer

That darts through the wood

Hush-a-by baby

There’s One who is good

The Oak of Peace for your heart

The Oak of Peace for your heart

(Ooo-o-o) hush-a-by, hush-aby

(O-o-o) hush-a-by

(Ooo-o-o) hush-a-by, hush-aby

(O-o-o) hush-a-by

Hush-a-by baby

There’s no need to fret

Hush-a-by baby

Though dawn is not yet

Hush-a-by baby

The child on her chest

A mother cannot forget

Hush-a-by baby

So much we can’t see

May fear flee away

That we both may sleep

Hush-a-by baby

The Lord surely keeps

Mother and child in His arms

He keeps us both in His arms
