Come, come, come all who are weary
Come, come, come you heavy laden
Take my yolk for it is easy
Feel my burden rest ever so lightly
For I am gentle and humble
And you will find rest for your soul
Come, come, come all who are weary
Come, come, come you heavy laden
Take my yolk for it is easy
And you will find rest for your soul

Should I sink like a stone
And come to my rest in the deep,
I will wait in the womb of the world
Buried in deep, dark peace.
I will wait for the storm that will stir me from rest
And the waves that will throw me ashore.
As by the sand I am worn
The tide I am drawn
Through the waters I am newborn.

Do not rush as you walk with grief
For it does not help the journey
Walking slow, take your time
Do not hurry my friend
As you walk with grief
Be not disturbed by the memories that come unbidden
Swiftly forgive them, letting Christ speak for you
Unspoken words, unwoven threads
Will be resolved in him
Be not disturbed, be not disturbed
Oh be gentle with the one who walks with grief
If it is you, be gentle with yourself.
Swiftly forgive, taking it slow
Take your time
Take time to be gentle as you walk with grief

Our Father in heaven
Save us who bear Your name
Do not leave us abandoned
Let Your will and kingdom reign
Meet our hunger with bread
And our sin with forgiveness
As we meet our enemies
As You have met us
Lead us not into trial
But deliver Your children
For this world and the one to come
Rest forever in Your power.

This too shall pass
This too shall pass
Though these days are dark
And sure to leave a mark
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

Receive what cannot be claimed
Fall into what cannot be scaled
Breathe in what cannot be seen
Awake to what cannot be dreamed
Attend to the ground beneath your feet
Attend to the colours underneath
For God is here and now in love
My friend, trust that will be enough.

The Way may be steep and rough
But don’t be afraid my friend
If you stumble a hundred times a day
Love will surely pick you up
And kiss your wounds so tenderly
You might even feel pity
For those too strong
To fall.
