Come unto Me

music and lyrics by Bernard Hull

VERSE 1:

I’ve been a fool,

There’s no one to blame,

I’ve squandered my life on fortune and fame,

Pursuing the things that made me feel good,

And although it sounds strange,

I wish I could change,

If only I could.

CHORUS:

Come unto me when you’re weary,

Come unto me when you mourn,

I am the one you can turn to,

For I can make you heaven born.

VERSE 2:

I was so selfish,

In all that I’ve done,

I just didn’t care about anyone,

Amusing myself at others’ expense,

But I cannot go on,

For I know I was wrong,

I have no defence.

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:

Lord I’m so sorry,

I feel so ashamed,

The things that I’ve done have just left me chained,

I ask you to change me,

I know I was wrong,

Come reach deep within,

And then free me from sin,

Lord make me strong.

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:

CODA:

My name is Jesus,

My name is Jesus,

Cast your burdens on me

And then I’ll set you free,

Yes I’ll make you my own,

If you’ll only come home,

To Me.
