22 Mon.
(Exodus 15. 11-21; Acts 7. 35-43)
I will grant peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one shall make you afraid. Leviticus 26. 6
‘Come unto me, ye weary,
And I will give you rest.’
O blessed voice of Jesus,
Which comes to hearts oppressed!
It tells of benediction,
Of pardon, grace, and peace,
Of joy that hath no ending,
Of love that cannot cease. 181. 1
Jesus says, “Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matthew 11. 29
Happy are they, they that love God,
Whose hearts have Christ confessed,
Who by his cross have found their life,
And ‘neath his yoke their rest. 237. 1
