Come all you heavy laden Come all you heavy laden Come all you heavy laden His burden is light In the garden of Gethsemane He prayed, sweating blood "Father will You take this cup from me? If not, Your will be done" Cat o' nine tails tore at His flesh The lamb, torn and bruised Put a crown of thorns upon His head "Here comes the King of Jews" Climbing up the mountain called the skull For our iniquities Pardoning a thief hung on the cross "Today you'll be with me." At His dying breath the whole earth shook The rocks, split in two Nailing every sorrow to His death He paid for me and you Come all you heavy laden Come all you heavy laden Come all you heavy laden His burden is light
