Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two feet planted in the sand
Soakin' up Your glory yeah
Saw You walkin' from a distance
Without a hint of resistance
Had Your arms open
And a warmth in your eyes
You took my hand and You whispered
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
I'll give you rest from your burden
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
I'll give you rest from your burden now
I woke up to the weight of the world
Right back into reality
And all that's goin' wrong
'Cause in the midst of this chaotic life
I try to find peace of mind
But You've been there all along
And even now I hear You whisper
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
I'll give you rest from your burden
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
I'll give you rest from your burden
I feel the weight, I feel the weight is slowly liftin'
As you close the distance
And I know, it's gonna be okay when i hear you say
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
Oh I'm gonna carry your burden
Come to me when
You're weary and
I'll give you hope when you're hurting
I'll give you rest from your burden now
The weight is lifted now

This is beautiful. Guess what, yesterday there was a children talent show at my church (Ethiopian Church in Denver area called Addis Kidan) and two girls performed two of your songs. You have to praise God cause your territory is expanding and that means His will and love expanding. Our God is awesome. :)

Jamie Grace, if you don't ever win anything else in your life, just know you've won so many fans. So many people who look up to you for music like this. Music that reassures us who God is. You made my 2012 with this video. I've been praying for a "Come to me" video. GAAH! I love you!
