Listen from:
(These lines were found written on the back of a
promissory note.)
This piece of paper in your hand
Declares to you that on demand
You twenty dollars shall receive,
This simple promise you believe;
It puts your mind as much at rest
As if the money you possessed.
So Christ, who died but now does live,
Does unto you the promise give
That if you on His name believe
You shall eternal life receive.
Upon the first you clearly rest;
Which is the surest and the best?
The bank many break; heaven never can!
It’s safer trusting God than man.
“Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:2828Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
