Austin French's song 'Rest For Your Soul' is a gentle invitation to those who are tired, burdened, and hurting. Drawing directly from Jesus' words in Matthew 11:28-30, the song offers comfort and assurance that God provides shelter and peace for the weary. It encourages listeners to bring their heavy loads to Jesus, who promises rest and a light yoke. The lyrics emphasize that we were never meant to carry our burdens alone and point to the cross as a place to lay down our struggles. The song is a soothing reminder of God's care and the peace found in surrendering to Him.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Are you tired and troubled

Weighted down by a heavy load

Praying for change

Searching for faith

Waiting on a miracle


Are you drowning in questions

Can't believe where the road has lead 

There's one who knows the heavy you hold

And He says


Come to Me

All who are weary and heavy burdened

All who are hurting

Come to Me

I'll be your shelter 

My yoke is easy

My load is light

And you can find rest for your soul

Rest for your soul


There's a peace that can hold you

And a power greater than your own

When you feel so small

Back to the wall

That's when Jesus calls


Come to Me

All who are weary and heavy burdened

All who are hurting

Come to Me

I'll be your shelter 

My yoke is easy

My load is light

And you can find rest for your soul

Rest for your soul


You were never meant to carry that weight alone

You were never meant to carry it on your own

Come to the cross

Lay it at the feet of Jesus

Come to the cross

Lay it at the feet of Jesus


There is one who knows the heavy you hold 

And He says


Come to Me

All who are weary and heavy burdened

All who are hurting

Come to Me

I'll be your shelter 

My yoke is easy

My load is light

And you can find rest for your soul

Rest for your soul


Rest for your soul

Rest for your soul

You can find rest
