Gateway Worship's 'Come Find Rest,' performed by David and Lauren Mwonga, is a gentle invitation to bring weariness, anxiety, and heartache to Jesus. The song speaks directly to those who are heavy laden, broken-hearted, or tired of worrying, offering rest in Christ. It emphasizes laying burdens at Jesus' feet and finding peace, grace, and hope in His presence. The bridge highlights beauty from ashes, hope in darkness, and comfort through trials, pointing to the cross and the open heaven. The lyrics echo Matthew 11:28-30, where Jesus calls the weary to find rest in Him.

VERSE 1

Are you heavy laden

Are you broken-hearted

Come find rest in Jesus Christ

Are you sick and tired

Of worrying the day away

Come find rest in Jesus Christ

CHORUS

Lay your burden down

At the feet of Jesus

VERSE 2

Lost in heaven?s eyes

Dancing with You face to face

I found rest in Jesus Christ

All your sins are scattered

Further than the farthest east

You?ll find rest in Jesus Christ

BRIDGE

There?s beauty for ashes

Hope in the darkness

Grace for the broken heart

There?s joy in the mourning

Rest for the weary

Comfort through every trial

There?s peace for the restless

Bread for the hungry

In You I?m satisfied

The cross for our burden

The grave for our failure

Heaven is open wide

COME FIND REST
