My Yoke Is Easy

"Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek

and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls."  Matthew 11:29

 

My yoke is easy,

My burden is light,

I'll be there to sustain you,

Each day and night.

 

I'll be there by your side,

If you just simply try,

To be the best you can be.

 

If ye seek, ye shall find me,

I'm not far away.

If you just simply call me,

I'll come and I'll stay.

 

I'll bring peace to your mind,

Love to your heart,

And hope to lead the way.

 

Please!  Open your heart to me!

Please! Open your mind and see!

Please let me be your friend,

And I'll stand by your side till the end.

 

I'm waiting to hear you,

Call my name,

So I can sustain you,

Through sorrow and pain.

 

I'll light up the night,

Calm stormy seas,

And you will walk with me.
